1969 Map of Bentley

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Bentley sits at the heart of this landscape in Hettinger County, where the plains are defined by the winding course of the Cannonball River and Thirtymile Creek. The map documents a critical era of transition for North Dakota's transportation infrastructure, showing the Burlington Northern and the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroads actively crossing the terrain. Traces of earlier travel are visible in the Old Railroad Grade found in the northern section of the survey. Cultural and agricultural landmarks, such as the Odessa Cem and several Gravel Pit sites, provide tangible markers of local history and the rural economy. The boundary between Hettinger and Grant Counties is clearly delineated, alongside a Gaging Sta on the river, reflecting the region's managed water resources during the late 1960s.
