About this map

Zenith anchors the southern portion of this landscape, situated along the Burlington Northern rail line in the early 1960s. This survey, updated with 1978 photogrammetric data, captures a transition between rural education and industrial extraction in the North Dakota Badlands. Educational hubs like the Green River Sch No 4 stand north of the Green River, while the southern hills show significant activity in resource extraction. The area is heavily marked by numerous small-scale operations including the Ridl Mine, Karsky Mine, and Walters Mine. Watercourses like North Creek and the Heart River carve through the terrain, while the prevalence of Scoria Pits and various Strip Mines suggests the economic importance of coal and scoria to the local settlements. County lines for Billings, Dunn, and Stark counties converge here, highlighting the administrative boundaries of this prairie region.
