The confluence of the Missouri River and the Yellowstone River anchors this North Dakota landscape, marking the historic boundary between Williams Co and McKenzie Co. This modern survey documents the high plains terrain where the Missouri begins to widen into the headwaters of Lake Sakakawea. The small settlement of Buford sits near the river bend, surrounded by a grid of county roads such as 143rd Ave NW and 40th St NW. The map reveals the deeply etched drainage of Briar Cr cutting through the bluffs south of the river, showing the contrast between the flat river bottoms and the broken upland terrain that characterizes this part of the northern plains.
