2011 Map of Lookout Butte

About this map

Communion Cemetery stands as a quiet focal point in this portion of the Porcupine District, set against a landscape defined by prominent landforms and winding waterways. The terrain is marked by distinct rises including Lookout Butte, Cedar Butte, and Smokey Butte, which provide natural landmarks across the rural prairie. The drainage pattern is established by the meandering path of Cedar Creek, which is joined by Plum Creek and Timber Creek as they move through the quadrangle. A structured grid of rural routes, including 90th St SW and 52nd Ave SW, provides access to these remote lands, reflecting the long-established section-line surveying of the North Dakota plains. The map offers a clear view of the sparse but deliberate human footprint in Sioux County during the early 21st century.
