2020 Map of Boyce Creek West

About this map

The Little Missouri National Grassland dominates this section of Slope County, North Dakota, where the intricate drainages of the Little Missouri River carve through the plains. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Boyce Cr and its tributaries, which flow through public lands and private holdings alike. This 2020 survey illustrates a sparsely populated region where traditional land use patterns persist, centered on the reliable water sources provided by Cash Cr and Indian Cr. The map's detailed topography, derived from the National Elevation Dataset, reveals the complex network of draws and ridges that characterize this part of the Badlands, offering a clear view of the geographic relief and the vast reaches of the National Grassland that preserve this distinctive environment.
