1974 Map of Bull Butte

About this map

Bull Butte rises as a prominent landmark along the state boundary where the Montana-North Dakota line meets the Roosevelt and Williams county borders. This prairie landscape, surveyed in the mid-1970s and updated through the 1980s, reveals a rural economy driven by resource extraction and scattered homesteads across the townships of Strandahl and Hebron. Industrial activity is evident through numerous installations including a Gravel Pit, a Drill Hole, and various Tanks and a Well located in the uplands. Drainage is defined by the winding paths of Sand Creek and Little Muddy Creek. Social life in this sparsely populated region centers on the Seventh-day Adventist Ch, while a natural Spring in the northwest corner suggests an original water source for early settlers in this high plains environment.
