1972 Map of Leith
USGS Topo · Published 1974About this map
Leith serves as the primary hub for this Grant County landscape, situated along the tracks of the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad. The region is defined by the winding course of the Cannonball River, which carves through the undulating prairie to the south, joined by Morris Creek. This 1970s survey documents a working landscape where mining and agriculture intersect. Evidence of the area's extraction history is visible in the presence of the Binek Mine, Lahr Mine, and Peterson Mine, all located north of the river. Named landmarks like Spring Hill and the elevated terrain of Elm Rock provide topographic context for researchers and genealogists tracing family land or industrial sites in this portion of the North Dakota plains.
