About this map

The Fort Berthold Indian Reservation defines this landscape in the Missouri River Basin of North Dakota. This 1970s survey captures a transition in the local infrastructure as part of the Department of the Interior program for the development of the region. The map reveals a land shaped by its drainages, specifically the courses of Skunk Creek in the north and Squaw Creek flowing through the south.

Evidence of local spiritual and community life is anchored by St Anthonys Ch, while industrial activity is represented by a small Gravel Pit positioned near a tributary. The topography is meticulously detailed, showing the interplay of high plateaus and carved creek beds. This document serves as a record of the reservation’s land use during a period of federal regional development efforts, providing essential data for those studying the physical and cultural geography of Dunn County.
