About this map

The Little Missouri River carves through the southern edge of this landscape, marking the transition between the rolling hills of Golden Valley County and Slope County. Much of this territory is managed as part of the Little Missouri National Grassland, a region defined by its complex drainage systems and open rangeland. The map reveals a network of seasonal waterways, including Bullion Creek and its namesake tributary Dry Bullion Creek, which dictate the local topography.

Rural infrastructure is sparse, concentrated primarily along unpaved routes like Van Daele Road and Pipeline Road. These corridors, alongside 47th St SW, provide the only significant access through the sprawling grassland units. The land's character is strictly defined by its drainage basins and the Public Land Survey System grid, reflecting a contemporary era of conservation and resource management in the North Dakota badlands.
