2024 Map of Burnt Butte

About this map

Burnt Creek and its various tributaries, including Spring Coulee and Cave Coulee, carve through the upland plains of Burleigh County just north of the state capital. This survey shows the northern residential expansion of Bismarck toward the community of Arnold, where modern subdivisions like Chokecherry Dr and Sunflower Dr meet the traditional rural landscape. Significant elevation changes are marked by Burnt Butte and Coal Butte, which provide a contrast to the developing residential corridors. The map records a transition from traditional livestock infrastructure, evidenced by Cattle Dr and Parker Ranch Rd, to newer neighborhood loops and residential roads. Small settlements like Midway remain perched along the primary transit lines, serving as points of reference amidst the shifting use of the North Dakota prairie.
