2017 Map of Daglum

About this map

Daglum sits on the high plains of Stark County, where the land begins to roll toward the breaks of the Badlands. This 2017 survey details a landscape defined by the Public Land Survey System, with a rigid grid of gravel roads like 49th St SW and 122nd Ave SW cutting across the drainage of Antelope Cr. The map captures the quiet character of western North Dakota, dominated by large-scale ranching and agriculture. Notable local landmarks include the prominent elevation of Flagstaff Butte and the Daglum Cem, which serves as a poignant physical record of the families who settled this open country. To the south, the terrain transitions at the Stark Co Slope Co boundary as it enters the protected borders of the Little Missouri National Grassland.
