1951 Map of Bordulac SW

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The rolling plains of Stutsman County are defined by a complex network of glacial depressions and early rail infrastructure in the early 1950s. The northern edge of the map follows the line of the Minneapolis St Paul and Sault Ste Marie railroad, which served the small loading point at Millers Spur near the shores of Dry Lake. To the southwest, the Northern Pacific line cuts diagonally across the prairie, passing through rural landscapes marked by long-established survey townships like Bucephalia, Bordulac, and Edmunds. Local education and social life centered on sites like the Arrowwood Sch, while the presence of Bennetts along the Coulee in the southeast corner indicates the scattered nature of settlement during this era of prairie agriculture. The map captures the region's topography in fine detail, showing the numerous small basins and prairie potholes that characterize this portion of the Missouri River Basin.
