About this map

Little Missouri National Grassland dominates this section of McKenzie County, revealing a landscape defined by its rugged drainage networks rather than human settlements. The high ground of Flat Rock Butte provides a central landmark for the region, overlooking the winding paths of Bennie Peer Cr and Cinnamon Cr.

Transport through these public lands is limited to specialized routes such as Flat Rock Rd and Cinnamon Creek Rd, which follow the natural contours of the drainages. The map captures a moment in the 21st century where the primary activity is the management of the Lmng acreage, with very little infrastructure beyond these essential access roads and the occasional segment of Flat Rock St. In the northern portion, Poker Jim Cr carves through the terrain, illustrating the intricate erosion patterns common to this part of North Dakota.
