2024 Map of Crown Butte

About this map

Crown Butte rises as a prominent landmark above the winding drainages of the North Dakota plains, anchoring a landscape defined by the intersection of Otter Creek and Square Butte Creek. This 2024 survey captures the precise drainage patterns of Crown Butte Creek and the established rural road network that follows the section lines of the Public Land Survey System. The area is divided by the Oliver Co and Morton Co boundary, illustrating the administrative divisions of this agricultural region. Transportation in this part of the state relies on a grid of local routes like Co Rd 140 and Twp Rd 13, providing access to the high plateaus and creek valleys that have shaped the local economy and land use for generations.
