2014 Map of Kiefer Buttes

About this map

Kiefer Buttes and a series of prominent elevations define this portion of Emmons County, where the landscape is etched by the drainage patterns of Cattail Cr. This modern survey reveals a geometric grid of rural section roads, such as 95th St SW and 4th Ave SW, imposed upon a complex topography of glacial features. Significant local landmarks including Hall Hill, Lookout Butte, Smith Butte, and Fritz Butte stand as clear navigational markers across the territory. In the southeastern corner, the small catchment of Becker Lake and the winding course of the S Br Cattail Cr highlight the sparse but critical water resources in this agricultural region of North Dakota.
