About this map

The Turtle Mountain Indian Reservation dominates this 1930s-era landscape along the international boundary between the United States and Canada. The map illustrates a densely glaciated terrain of the Turtle Mountains, characterized by hundreds of small water bodies like Carpenter Lake, Dion Lake, and Island Lake. Within the reservation, the Belcourt Indian Agency serves as a focal point of activity, surrounded by a network of rural schools and missions including St Johns Ch and St Michaels Ch. To the south, the terrain transitions into Shell Valley, where the Great Northern railroad tracks cross the prairie. This survey documents a complex rural social geography of the early 20th century, where family and community life centered on landmarks like Lakeview Cem and the various township schools such as Russell Sch and Knoke Sch.
