About this map

Fallon is the primary settlement on this western North Dakota landscape, situated near the headwaters of Chanta Peta Creek. The map documents a sparsely populated rural landscape where section lines and isolated wells dominate the grid. Local history is anchored at the St Peter and Paul Cem, which serves as a significant genealogical marker for the surrounding homesteads. The terrain transitions from the high level of Little Heart Flats in the northeast to the dramatic breaks of Oak Coulee and the prominent Ridge. Distinctive local landmarks like Rattlesnake Hill and a passage known as The Gap suggest a geography defined by traditional grazing lands and the practical needs of ranching and dryland farming in Morton County during the late 1970s.
