About this map

The prairie landscape of Tuttle and Chestina townships in the late 1970s is defined by its small-scale rural infrastructure and protected wetlands. This portion of Kidder County shows a sparsely populated agricultural region where community life centered on several local cemeteries, including United Cem, Zion Langedahl Cem, and Langedahl Cem. The presence of a localized Townhall serves as a reminder of the township-level governance that organized these North Dakota plains. Significant portions of the terrain are dedicated to conservation, with the Arena State Game Management Area and a National Waterfowl Production Area indicating the importance of the regional pothole habitat. Scattered Gravel Pit sites and a single Well reflect the modest industrial activities supporting the local road network and farmsteads near the Burleigh and Kidder county line.
