About this map

The prairie landscape of Emmons County in the mid-1970s is defined by a dense network of coulees and glacial drainage patterns, anchored by the rail crossing near Dana. The map illustrates a significant transport corridor where the Burlington Northern and Soo Line railroads traverse the undulating terrain of the Missouri Plateau. Water management and local aviation are prominent features of this rural district, centered around Braddock Dam and the nearby McLeish Landing Strip. The drainage system is dominated by the winding path of Long Lake Creek and its tributaries, including Hawk Creek and the West Spring Branch Long Lake Creek. Small-scale industrial activity is evidenced by scattered Gravel Pits found throughout the townships. This record captures the area as it transitioned into the late 20th century, maintaining its character as a sparsely populated agricultural and transit hub in central North Dakota.
