1962 Map of Burnt Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Burnt Butte rises as a prominent landmark in this 1960s landscape north of Bismarck, where the rolling prairie of Burleigh County is deeply incised by the drainages of Burnt Creek and Hay Creek. The area retains a distinctly rural character, defined by section lines and small settlements like Midway and Arnold. A notable detail of the local educational infrastructure is the presence of Burnt Creek Sch No 1, serving the scattered farmsteads of the Glenview and Hay Creek townships. Geologically, the map reveals the region's character through names like Coal Butte and Ball Butte, alongside the presence of Gravel Pits and coulees such as Cave Coulee and Spring Coulee. This survey captures the alignment of Highway 83 as it cuts north through the heart of the territory, providing a precise record of the land use and drainage patterns before further modern expansion.
