About this map

Lake Sakakawea and the branching waters of Wolf Chief Bay dominate the northern landscape of this Dunn County region. The terrain is defined by a dense network of coulees and ridges that drain toward the reservoir, with primary watercourses like North Cr and Steel Cr carving through the prairie. The map shows the structured organization of the Public Land Survey System, highlighting the intersection of four townships including t146n r93w and t145n r92w.

Rural infrastructure is limited to a sparse grid of gravel and section-line roads, such as 88th Ave NW and 90th Ave SW, which provide access to the high ground between the drainage basins. This 2018 survey reveals the modern landscape of the Missouri River valley after its transformation into a major reservoir system, showing a topography shaped by both natural erosion and the massive scale of the lake's shoreline.
