1958 Map of Clifton

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Clifton stands as a small rail-side community in central North Dakota during the late 1950s, situated along the Burlington Northern line. This survey, updated with mid-1980s data, illustrates a landscape dominated by the glacial prairie pothole region, where large bodies of water like Antelope Lake and Lesmeister Lake provide critical habitat. The establishment of the National Waterfowl Production Area (marked frequently as Nwpa) reflects a mid-century commitment to conservation within Pierce County. Outside of the small settlement and the railroad corridor, the terrain is characterized by undulating contours and depressions typical of the Missouri River Basin’s northern reaches. A Gravel Pit located near the tracks suggests the local extraction industry used for rail bed maintenance and road improvements in this agricultural area.
