1997 Map of Bear Butte

About this map

Little Missouri National Grassland dominates the southern reaches of this McKenzie County landscape, where the broken terrain of the North Dakota badlands gives way to drainages and isolated high points. The map prominently features Bear Butte, a local landmark standing above the intersection of numerous seasonal waterways including Dogs Draw and the winding Red Wing Creek. The Twelfth Standard Parallel North serves as a major cartographic divider, splitting the township grids of this rural expanse. Genealogists and local historians can locate the Spring Grove Cem in the northeast and Red Wing Cem to the south. These markers, alongside scattered Gravel Pit sites and remote ranch tracks, illustrate the sparse settlement pattern and resource-based land use in the region during the late twentieth century.
