1954 Map of McClusky

About this map

Garrison Dam and the massive waters of Lake Sakakawea dominate this mid-century portrait of central North Dakota. The landscape is defined by the recently completed engineering of the Missouri River Basin Project, which transformed the valley and established the Audubon National Wildlife Refuge. Tracing the river's path, the Lewis and Clark Trail winds past historic river towns like Washburn and Stanton, while the northern portion of the map reveals a prairie pothole region densely packed with Numerous Lakes.
