North Killdeer Mountain and the surrounding high plains of Dunn County dominate this mid-1970s survey. The landscape is defined by its geological and cultural landmarks, notably the Battle of Killdeer Mountain Historical Monument and the Killdeer Mountain State Game Management Area. The map reveals a drainage network including Spring Creek, Norred Creek, and Chase Cr, highlighting the water sources vital to this prairie environment. One interpretive detail is the presence of Medicine Hole, a significant natural feature on the eastern slopes, and numerous Gravel Pits that suggest local resource extraction. Ranching and land management are evident through the network of fence and field lines that segment the drainages of Oak Gulch and Gumbo Cr, providing a clear record of rural land use before modern development.
