1978 Map of Hawks Nest

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Hawks Nest rises as a prominent landmark in the center of this 1970s landscape where the borders of Stutsman, Wells, and Foster Counties converge. The terrain is defined by a dense network of prairie potholes and wetlands, much of which is conserved within the National Waterfowl Production Area. This era shows a sparsely populated agricultural region, anchored by local centers like the Townhall and the Lunde Ch, which sits adjacent to a Cem in the southern portion of the quadrangle. Drainage is primarily managed through the winding course of Little Pipestem Creek in the northwest. Human activity is evidenced by industrial and agricultural markers including a Gravel Pit and a large Feedlot, reflecting the land's utility in the late twentieth century. Modern infrastructure is represented by Radio Towers positioned atop the higher elevations of the Hawks Nest hills.
