About this map

Little Missouri National Grassland dominates the eastern portion of this landscape, where the rugged badlands of McKenzie County meet high prairie. Local social life in the mid-1990s is anchored by the Spring Creek Ch and its nearby Cem, along with the Elkhorn Sch located north of the E Kelly Ranch. The terrain is deeply incised by a drainage network including Sevenmile Creek, Elkhorn Creek, and Spring Creek, which provided essential water for early ranching operations. A lone Mine and various wells indicate the extraction history of the region. The map also records the Twelfth Standard Parallel North, a primary survey line that bisects the territory, reflecting the structured division of the Western frontier as it persisted into the modern era.
