2014 Map of Heart Butte

About this map

Wolf Butte and the namesake Heart Butte rise above the undulating landscape of south-central North Dakota on this contemporary survey. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Heart Butte Cr, which flows eastward across the Morton County and Grant County line. While the area is largely characterized by open space and a systematic grid of section roads like 66th Ave and 47th St, the presence of the Old Saint Joseph Cem south of the creek offers a tangible connection to the early settlement history of this rural region. State highway ND-49 provides the primary north-south transit corridor through this sparsely populated agricultural area, where local routes like Farmers Trl and Lindstrom Cr reflect a landscape shaped by both natural drainage and ranching needs.
