1973 Map of Cedar Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Little Missouri River carves a winding path through the southwest corner of North Dakota in the early 1970s, defining a landscape shaped by both hydrology and energy extraction. This survey reveals a transition from the riparian environment of the river valley to the elevated terrain of Cedar Ridge. The region's economy is clearly visible through the numerous energy-related markers, including various Gas Wells, Oil Wells, and several Drill Holes scattered across the township lines. Movement through this corner of Slope County relied on natural geography, with a designated Ford providing passage across the river. Tributaries such as Big Gumbo Creek, Sevenmile Creek, and Fivemile Creek further dissect the land, illustrating the drainage patterns that have etched the local topography over time.
