1972 Map of Garrison Dam North

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Pick City sits at the southern edge of this mid-1970s landscape, serving as a gateway to the massive engineering works of the Dam on the Missouri River. The area is defined by the transformation of the Missouri valley into Lake Sakakawea, creating extensive recreation and conservation zones like Lake Sakakawea State Park and the De Trobriand State Game Management Area. This survey provides a record of land use following the reservoir's creation, highlighting the Old Fort Stevenson Military Reservation Boundary which cuts across the modern shoreline. Significant social and industrial infrastructure is documented, from the Camp Dominic Savio and NW North Dakota Girl Scout Camp to the Powerplant and Intake structures essential to the region's energy production. The Soo Line railroad passes through the northern reaches, while scoria pits hint at the local geology utilized during this era of development.
