1967 Map of Ft. Ransom

About this map

Sheyenne River meanders through a deeply incised valley in this late-1960s survey of southeastern North Dakota. The landscape is defined by the contrast between the flat upland agricultural fields and the wooded, winding river corridor. Fort Ransom serves as the primary settlement, positioned near the historic Site of old Ft Ransom. The area is notably rich in indigenous and early frontier landmarks, including several clusters of Indian Mounds, the Writing Rock, and prominent terrain features such as Bears Den Hillock and The Pyramid.
