2020 Map of Camp Creek East

About this map

Lake Sakakawea dominates the northern horizon of this McKenzie County landscape, where the Missouri River valley was transformed by mid-century damming. The terrain is defined by the complex drainage systems of Timber Creek and Camp Creek, which carve deep coulees through the high plains. This 2020 edition reveals the intersection of modern rural infrastructure and historical land divisions, tracing the grid of section lines and gravel paths such as Co RD 29 and 139th St NW. The map illustrates the stark geography of the Williston Basin, documenting the remote reaches of North Dakota where the prairie plateau breaks toward the expansive reservoir shoreline. Researchers can follow the winding path of Timber Creek as it flows northward toward the lake, marking the natural contours of this sparsely settled ranching and energy-producing region.
