Charlson sits as the central settlement in this mid-1960s landscape, positioned near the rugged breaks leading down to the Garrison Reservoir. This era marks a significant industrial presence in McKenzie County, evidenced by a large Oil and Gas Field and a prominent Pipeline cutting through the southern half of the quadrangle. The map captures the tension between traditional prairie land and emerging energy development, with specialized features like Scoria Pits dotted across the terrain.
