1972 Map of Cartwright

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Yellowstone River cuts through the western edge of this landscape, its path bridged by the Hjalmer Nelson Memorial Bridge as the river moves north through McKenzie County. This 1972 survey records the settlement of Cartwright and its connection to the Burlington Northern railroad, which runs parallel to Sioux Creek. The topography is dominated by a complex network of coulees, including Sheep Coulee, Sweening Coulee, and Number One Coulee, illustrating the drainage patterns into the river valley. Agricultural and local utility markers such as the Mule Creek Windmill, a Flowing Well, and a Gravel Pit are noted throughout the sections. Local recreation is centered at Sundheim Park, while named tributaries like Horse Creek and Vanderhoof Creek further define the intricate terrain of this North Dakota borderland.
