1960 Map of Horse Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Johns Lake and Horse Lake punctuate this high-plains landscape along the border of Sheridan and Burleigh Counties. The area is characterized by a high density of small, seasonal wetlands and prairie potholes, which dictate the winding paths of the local section roads. Rural life in the early 1960s centered on scattered community landmarks such as Johns Lake Ch and several local educational hubs, including Johns Lake Sch No 3, Schrunk Sch No 1, and Schrunk Sch No 2. This survey reflects the region's development during the Missouri River Basin project, capturing the exact placement of farmsteads and rural infrastructure before further agricultural consolidation. To the southeast, O'Brien Lake and Pelican Lake mark the lower elevations of the undulating terrain.
