About this map

The Heart River winds through this section of Morton County, carving a path through a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and significant natural landmarks. To the east, Chimney Butte rises above the surrounding terrain, serving as a prominent geographical marker for the region. The map captures the meeting of land and water at Goose Bar, a distinct riverside formation along the main channel.

A network of local routes, including Co Rd 137, provides access to the higher elevations of Oak Coulee Ridge in the southeast. The area is drained by several tributaries, most notably Fish Creek, which meanders through the northern sections before approaching the river. This modern survey reflects the enduring character of the North Dakota prairie, where the section-line road system navigates around the complex topography of ridges and river valleys.
