2014 Map of Battleview

About this map

Battleview and the surrounding prairie of Burke and Mountrail counties are defined by a complex grid of rural section roads and an expanding energy infrastructure. The landscape transition from agricultural to industrial is evident through the presence of the North Tioga Oil and Gas Field, the North Tioga Gas Plant, and the Tioga Oil and Gas Field to the south. Local history is anchored at sites like Bethel Cem and Beauty Valley Cem, serving the small settlements of the region. Natural drainage is shaped by the winding course of White Earth Cr, which flows toward the White Earth River, while Sletten Lake provides a notable water feature amidst the topographic contours of the northern plains. This survey captures the coexistence of traditional rural life at Beauty Valley with the modern footprint of North Dakota's oil production.
