2018 Map of Boyce Creek West

About this map

The Little Missouri River carves its way through the northwestern corner of this Slope County landscape, defining the topography within the broader Little Missouri National Grassland. The terrain is characterized by a high density of intermittent drainages, including Boyce Cr, Cash Cr, and Indian Cr, which create a complex network of coulees and ridges. This 2018 survey reveals a sparsely settled region dominated by federal land management and large-scale ranching, where section lines and range roads provide the primary structural framework. The map documents the persistent land divisions of T135N and T134N, showing how historical township and range surveys continue to organize this open country. For those studying the geography of western North Dakota, it provides a precise look at the drainage patterns and public land boundaries within the Lmng.
