About this map

Huff sits along the western bluffs of the Missouri River in this modern survey of Morton County. The landscape is defined by the expansive Lake Oahe and a series of prominent landforms that rise above the prairie, including Ambulance Butte, Signal Butte, and The Hogback. These summits provided natural vantage points long before the development of local roads like Co Rd 80. To the north and west of the river, the drainage of Rice Cr and N Br Cantapeta Cr carves through the undulating plains.

Local history is marked by the presence of Park Cem and the Roughrider Trail, which parallels the riverbank. The map also identifies geological landmarks such as Rattlesnake Butte and Table Butte, highlighting the varied topography that transitions from the river valley to the higher Missouri Plateau. The county line between Emmons and Morton counties follows the primary channel of the Missouri River, visible in the northeast corner of the sheet.
