2014 Map of Burnt Butte

About this map

Midway and Arnold anchor this North Dakota landscape where the high prairie gives way to the drainage systems of the Missouri River watershed. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations like Burnt Butte and Coal Butte, which rise above a network of coulees including Cave Coulee and Spring Coulee. Waterways such as Burnt Cr and Hay Cr wind through the region, dictating the historical placement of roads and homesteads. The transition from traditional section-line roads like 175th Ave NW to more modern residential developments is evident in the cluster of newer named streets such as Chokecherry Dr, Lilly Dr, and Sunflower Dr. This pattern indicates the 21st-century suburban expansion extending north from the state capital region into formerly open range and farmland.
