2020 Map of Almont East

About this map

Almont occupies a prominent position in this western Morton County landscape, situated near the headwaters of Hailstone Cr. The terrain is defined by dramatic topographic relief, notably marked by White Butte and Antelope Butte rising above the surrounding prairie. The southern portion of the quadrangle descends into Curlew Valley near the border of Grant County. This modern survey illustrates the persistent rural infrastructure of the region, where a grid of section-line roads like Sims Rd and 47th Ave provides access to scattered homesteads and the local Almont Cem. The drainage patterns of Big Muddy Cr weave through the hills, illustrating the natural watercourses that have shaped ranching and settlement patterns in this part of North Dakota for generations.
