1969 Map of Box Elder NW

About this map

Sage Lake and the meandering course of Sage Creek define the northern drainage of this Hill County landscape, where the high plains are deeply incised by dry-wash coulees. The terrain is characterized by the erosive patterns of Faulkners Coulee and Halfway Coulee, which carve through the benchlands toward the Missouri River watershed further south. This 1969 survey, based on 1968 aerial photography, provides a clear view of the rural land management of the era, marked by numerous small-scale reservoirs and scattered wells that highlight the region's reliance on groundwater and seasonal runoff for livestock and agriculture in an arid environment.
