2020 Map of Hungry Man Butte

About this map

Hungry Man Butte stands as a prominent landmark in this sparsely populated region along the Billings and Dunn County line. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Knife River in the north and the dissection of the plateau by drainage systems like Crooked Cr and Horse Cr. This high plains terrain is mapped with ten-foot contour intervals, revealing the subtle elevations of Rocky Hill and the complex draws that feed into the river basin. The map illustrates a strictly rectilinear section-line road network, including 123rd Ave SW and 14th St SW, which dictates the movement across the modern ranching and agricultural landscape. It offers a clear view of the rural infrastructure and land management patterns in Western North Dakota at the start of the 2020s.
