About this map

Brookbank and Sikes define the upland terrain of Mountrail County in the early 1980s, where the drainage of the Little Knife River meets a network of smaller coulees. The landscape is primarily organized by section lines and township boundaries, including the southern edge of Osborn. Industrial activity is evident through several extraction sites, including a Quarry and multiple Gravel Pits concentrated near the eastern edge of the map. Local history is anchored at the Bolen Cem in the northeast, while modern infrastructure is represented by a prominent Radio Tower to the south. This area demonstrates the typical North Dakota prairie transition from natural watercourses like Crane Creek and Van Hook Cr to the structured agricultural and extraction economy of the late twentieth century.
