About this map

Little Beaver Creek carves a winding path through this portion of Emmons County, defining a landscape of glacial depressions and prairie rises. This early 1970s survey captures a rural landscape where family names are etched into the geography through landmarks like Maier Lake, Kremer Lake, and Schwahn Lake. The presence of Heidrich Slough and Walther Slough illustrates the varied wetland character of the Missouri Plateau, which alternates between seasonal water bodies and prominent elevations such as Volk Butte. The map reflects a period of established section-line roads and agricultural land management, documenting the precise topography of the North Dakota plains before modern consolidation. It is a detailed record of water drainage patterns and landforms that have historically shaped the local farming and ranching economy.
