1975 Map of Clear Lake

About this map

Clear Lake sits as the central geographic landmark in this mid-1970s survey of Burleigh County, North Dakota. The landscape reflects the established agricultural and religious foundations of the region, anchored by the Zion Ch and an adjacent Cem in the northern reaches of the sheet. The map reveals a sparsely settled prairie environment where early township boundaries like Lein, Christiana, and Sterling organize the grid of section lines and field divisions. Evidence of small-scale land use and local history is preserved through scattered Well sites and a single isolated Grave marking the southern territory near Driscoll. Resource extraction is noted at a Gravel Pit in the northwest, suggesting the practical infrastructure needs of this rural community during the late twentieth century.
