Theodore Roosevelt National Park and the surrounding Little Missouri National Grassland dominate this section of the North Dakota badlands. The terrain is defined by complex drainage networks, where Paddock Cr and Jones Cr carve through the plateau toward the Little Missouri River. The map highlights the intersection of protected wilderness and energy extraction, featuring the Theodore Roosevelt Oil Field in the north and the Scoria Oil Field further south. Distinctive landforms such as Scoria Point, Buck Hill, and Painted Canyon provide clear landmarks within the undulating topography. Historical land use is suggested by names like Beef Corral Bottom and Peaceful Valley, while vital water sources such as Boicourt Spring and Sheep Butte Spring are documented across the arid landscape.
