2011 Map of Clark Butte SW

About this map

Friedenfeld Cemetery serves as a silent focal point in this portion of Hettinger County, marking the heritage of the rural community near the eastern edge of the quadrangle. The landscape is defined by the wandering path of Buffalo Creek, which cuts diagonally across the prairie from the northwest. The map reflects the organized, rectilinear grid of North Dakota’s section lines, where gravel and local roads like Burt Rd, Newburg Rd, and St Placidus Rd facilitate travel between dispersed farmsteads. This 2011 survey captures a late-era look at the high plains, where the vast agricultural expanse is punctuated only by intermittent seasonal ponds and the occasional family-named landmark.
