2020 Map of Fish Creek Lake

About this map

The Heart River winds through the central plains of Morton County, carving a distinct path through the rolling topography of this North Dakota landscape. At the northern edge, Fish Creek Lake and its feeder stream, Fish Cr, provide a primary water source and topographical focus for the surrounding area. The terrain is marked by significant landmarks such as Chimney Butte and the elongated Oak Coulee Ridge, which rise above the river valleys. A network of rural section-line roads, including Co Rd 137 and 34th Ave, crisscrosses the landscape, reflecting the established Public Land Survey System. Along the river's bend, features like Goose Bar indicate the shifting alluvial patterns of the waterway, while the Little Heart River and Chanta Peta Cr drain the southeastern portion of the quadrangle.
