1973 Map of Lefor SW

About this map

Thirtymile Creek winds through the northern portion of this Hettinger County landscape, characterized by the undulating plains and drainages typical of southwestern North Dakota. In the early 1970s, the area remained predominantly agricultural, with the map recording several rural infrastructure points including the Pleasant View Cem and a small Gravel Pit. The map is divided by notable geopolitical and geographical designations, including the Clark Rifle and Havelock districts. In the south, the terrain is marked by Black Butte and the presence of Hay Slough, while Dead Horse Creek flows through the southwestern corner. This survey captures a specific moment in the rural development of the region before modern agricultural consolidation, preserving the locations of individual farmsteads and local section roads.
