About this map

Spring Creek meanders southward through the prairie of southwest North Dakota, eventually feeding the northern reaches of Bowman-Haley Lake. The landscape is organized into rural townships including Talbot, Boyesen, and Minnehaha, where the early 1970s terrain is marked by isolated landmarks and small-scale operations. Evidence of rural education and transport are preserved through the location of the Eden School and the path of the Stage Road, which cuts across the central section of the quadrangle. The survey captures the transition of the local hydrology, from the small Gaging Sta to the confluence of Cold Turkey Creek and Alkali Cr. Local landmarks like Watson and the presence of scattered wells reflect the ranching and resource extraction character of this region during the era.
