1979 Map of Chimney Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Little Missouri River meanders through the Badlands of western North Dakota, carving a complex drainage system across the Billings and Golden Valley county line. This 1970s landscape is defined by its prominent landmarks, including the namesake Chimney Butte and the broad elevation of Sentinel Butte to the west. The area shows a clear intersection of natural terrain and industrial utility, with numerous Oil Wells and a Pipeline established across the prairie uplands. Tributaries such as Custers Wash, Merrifield Creek, and Tepee Creek dissect the plateaus, creating the intricate breaks characteristic of the region. Transportation follows the river's path, anchored by the West River Road and East River Road, which provide access to the remote ridges and coulees, including Plumely Draw and Tracy Mtn.
