2020 Map of Belfield SW

About this map

Little Missouri National Grassland encompasses the western reaches of this North Dakota landscape, where the high plains of Stark and Billings counties meet. The terrain is defined by the drainage of the S Br Heart River and its various tributaries, including Norwegian Cr and Bull Cr. A prominent landmark, Rocky Hill, rises above the surrounding sections, marking the transition from open grazing land to the more broken geography typical of the region. The map reveals a systematic grid of section lines and rural routes, such as Sully Creek Rd and 38th St SW, which facilitate access across these expansive parcels. This 2020 survey documents the intersection of public land management and private agricultural sections, anchored by local water sources like Black Spring.
