About this map

The Leaf Mountain Foothills rise across the southern half of this quadrangle, creating a broken landscape of ridges and depressions punctuated by small sloughs. In the late 1940s, this area of Burke County remained a rural network of section-line roads and family farmsteads, anchored by local institutions like Grandview Ch and Tonset Ch. The presence of several local schoolhouses, including School No 1, School No 2, and School No 4, reflects the dispersed nature of this high plains community before the consolidation of rural districts.
