2012 Map of Lodgepole SE

About this map

N Fork Grand River meanders across the northern reaches of this Perkins County landscape, defining the drainage patterns of the high plains. The terrain is further etched by the winding course of Lodgepole Cr, which flows through the southern portion of the quadrangle. This 2012 USGS survey illustrates the rural infrastructure of the region, where a network of section-line roads and local routes like Castlebutte Rd and 111th St facilitate travel across the wide-open prairie. The map provides a detailed view of the natural hydrology and the persistent grid of the American West, showing how modern transportation routes continue to follow the traditional land divisions established decades prior.
