1981 Map of Benedict NW

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The low-lying prairie of Ward County is defined by its extensive wetlands and conservation areas as they appeared in the early 1980s. Large tracts of the National Waterfowl Production Area dominate the southern landscape, interspersed with small lakes and ponds across Iota Flat and Gassman. This topography reflects the glacial history of the region, where internal drainage and kettle ponds are common. Small community nodes are scattered throughout the agricultural grid, including the Townhall settlement and the isolated Kabanuk. Local religious and social life is centered at Hope Ch and the adjacent Hope Cem in the northeastern corner. Infrastructure for the energy and agriculture sectors is evident through a major Pipeline crossing the flats and a dedicated Landing Field, likely serving local crop dusting or general aviation needs in this rural corridor near Oak Creek.
