1975 Map of Braddock NE

About this map

Long Lake National Wildlife Refuge dominates the northern landscape of this 1970s survey, illustrating the critical importance of wetlands in the Dakota prairie. The map details the expansive waters of Long Lake, where an official water measurement from October 1974 is preserved. Moving south from the water's edge, the terrain shifts into the township divisions of Wild Rose, Baker, and Campbell, revealing a land defined by section lines and agricultural persistence. The topography is marked by distinct rises like Thelma and Crown Hill, while small features such as Mud Lake and scattered Gravel Pits indicate the local resources and natural depressions common to Kidder and Burleigh counties. This document provides an exacting look at the field lines and property boundaries that structured this rural landscape during the mid-1970s.
