About this map

The Fort Berthold Indian Reservation Boundary stretches across the northern portion of this Mercer County landscape, marking a significant cultural and administrative line in the Missouri River Basin. This 1970s topographical survey captures a sparsely populated region defined by the winding paths of Goodman Creek, Hans Creek, and Horse Creek, which carve through the high prairie. The isolation of the era is reflected in small, localized landmarks like Defiance Cem, which serves as a vital touchstone for genealogists and local historians tracking early families in this part of North Dakota. In addition to natural Spring water sources, a solitary Gravel Pit indicates the minor industrial activity required for maintaining the remote network of section lines and field boundaries that organize the terrain.
