1955 Map of Bottineau

About this map

The Bottineau townsite serves as the hub of this mid-1950s survey, situated where the Great Northern railroad tracks met the agricultural plains at the foot of the Turtle Mountains. Notable for its educational and civic institutions, the map documents the North Dakota School of Forestry and the local Fairground on the northern edge of the settlement. The surrounding landscape is divided into named areas such as Pickering, Whitetron, and Oak Valley, reflecting the early rural organization of the county.
