2024 Map of Daglum SW

About this map

The Little Missouri National Grassland dominates the landscape of this Slope County corner, where the High Plains topography is carved by a network of drainage systems. The Cannonball River flows across the southern portion of the sheet, while Philbrick Creek and Adobe Wall Creek define the northern drainages. These watercourses cut through the undulating terrain, creating the distinct relief patterns characteristic of the western North Dakota badlands. Cultural landmarks are sparse in this open country, making the Peaceful Valley Cem north of 56th St SW a significant point for genealogists and local historians. The section-line road network, including routes like 134th Ave SW, reveals the enduring grid of the Public Land Survey System that persists even within these protected grasslands.
