Lake Sakakawea dominates the southern landscape of this Missouri River region, where the reservoir waters reach deep into the Missouri Plateau. This 2014 representation shows the complex shoreline created by the flooding of the valley, forming prominent features such as Berthold Bay, Expansion Bay, and Beulah Bay. Inland, the terrain is defined by a rigorous grid of section roads like 53rd Ave NW and 12th St NW that serve the rural uplands. Genealogists may find interest in the settlement of Lilly and the nearby Dale Cem, located near the headwaters of the West Branch Douglas Creek. The map also captures the administrative boundary between McLean Co and Mercer Co as it cuts across the center of the lake.
