1973 Map of Indian Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Indian Butte rises as a prominent landmark in this upland landscape where the Mercer Co Stark Co boundary bisects the northern plains of western North Dakota. The drainage patterns are defined by the winding course of the Knife River and its tributary, the Branch Knife River, which cut through the open country. This survey reflects a mid-1970s view of the region's infrastructure, dominated in the south by the Burlington Northern railroad corridor. While the terrain is largely undeveloped ranch or farmland, the presence of numerous wells and a small Gravel Pit indicate the local extraction activities and water management essential for survival in this arid environment.
