1960 Map of Dengate

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Curlew Valley dominates this 1960 Morton County landscape, where the Northern Pacific railroad tracks bisect the rolling terrain of western North Dakota. The small settlement of Dengate serves as a focal point along the rail line, while the surrounding countryside is dotted with evidence of early rural education and industry. Notable landmarks like School No 4 and Monson Sch represent the local school districts of the era, while a Strip Mine and another unnamed Mine indicate the extraction of coal or other resources from the hills. The intricate drainage of Big Muddy Creek and its tributaries, including Wilson Creek and Kurtz Creek, winds through a topography defined by prominent landforms such as Twin Buttes, Jackrabbit Butte, and Porcupine Hill. An Old Railroad Grade in the southeast suggests a shifting transportation network as the region developed.
