2018 Map of Butte

About this map

Butte sits atop the boundary of McLean and McHenry counties, anchoring a landscape of glacial depressions and prairie rises in central North Dakota. The town is laid out on a grid that includes 2nd Ave, 3rd Ave, and 4th Ave, serving as a local hub for the surrounding agricultural community. To the west, the prominent elevation of Dogden Butte rises above the plains, providing a significant geographical landmark for the region. The map captures the area's rural character, characterized by Numerous small wetlands and seasonal basins that dot the sections between the county line and Cottonwood Lake to the north. Genealogists and local historians can locate the Butte Cem north of the main settlement, while the extensive network of section-line roads like 30th St NW and 29th St NW illustrates the enduring layout of the Public Land Survey System in this part of the state.
