1968 Map of Medicine Butte

About this map

Medicine Butte dominates the southern portion of this Mercer County landscape as it was documented in the late 1960s. The meandering course of the Knife River winds through the central portion of the quadrangle, serving as a primary drainage for the surrounding prairie. To the north, early industrial activity is evident through the presence of a Strip Mine and scattered Gravel Pits, signaling the region's extraction-based economy. The map also captures a significant utility corridor marked by a Pipeline stretching across the northern sections. This survey provides a clear view of the natural hydrology of the area, featuring the junctions of Mud Creek and Coyote Creek as they feed into the larger river system, which remained largely undeveloped at the time of the field check.
