1978 Map of Hungry Man Butte

About this map

Hungry Man Butte dominates the northern landscape of this Western North Dakota survey, a prominent landmark in the high plains terrain between the Knife River and the winding course of Crooked Creek. The map documents a sparsely settled ranching and farming region during the early 1960s, with a primary focus on the small community of Snow. This area, situated along the border of Billings and Dunn Counties, features the Snow Sch, reflecting the localized educational infrastructure that served rural families of the era. The drainage patterns are clearly defined by Horse Creek and several unnamed tributaries, while Rocky Hill provides further topographic variety to this section of the Missouri Plateau.
