The Little Missouri River meanders through this portion of the Badlands, creating a deeply eroded landscape within the Little Missouri National Grassland. This 2017 survey shows the intersection of the McKenzie Co and Dunn Co boundary line amidst a network of drainage creeks including Cherry Cr, Elkhorn Cr, and Rough Cr. Distinctive landforms such as Haystack Butte and Round Top Butte provide prominent vertical relief in an area primarily defined by public grazing lands and section-line access roads like 118th Ave NW. The map illustrates the contemporary balance between protected federal lands and the rural infrastructure of western North Dakota, where the topography of the Lmng dictates the placement of winding trails and seasonal waterways.
