1980 Map of Fish Creek Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Heart River carves a winding path through this portion of Morton County, defining a landscape of deep coulees and prominent high points. In the northern reaches, the Fish Creek Lake State Wildlife Management Area surrounds the waters of Fish Creek Lake, which was created at the confluence of Fish Creek and the river. This 1980 survey captures the rural character of the region, where transportation is marked by the Stark Bridge and a network of primitive Jeep Trails that negotiate the broken terrain. To the south, the topography rises toward Chimney Butte and the defined Oak Coulee Ridge, while the riverbed reveals the broad Goose Bar. This map illustrates the intersection of water resources and conservation land in a part of North Dakota characterized by significant vertical relief, from the low drainage of Oak Coulee to the isolated peaks overlooking the valley.
