About this map

The settlement of Hanks serves as a focal point in this northwestern North Dakota landscape, situated along the Great Northern railroad line just after World War II. The terrain is characterized by a series of distinct topographic features, including the Buttes, Scorio, and Goodluck formations, which reflect the region's complex geological history and drainage into Scorio Creek. Resource extraction is evident through the presence of the Bublitz Mine and Erke Mine, indicating the coal or mineral interests that supported the local economy during this era.
