1959 Map of Mercer SE

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Alta Ch stands as a focal point in this 1959 landscape where the North Dakota prairies of Burleigh and Sheridan counties meet. The survey reveals a rural community structured around its educational and religious institutions, including Johns Lake Sch No 1, School No 2, and Pleasant View Sch. The winding course of Painted Woods Creek cuts through the southern portion of the quadrangle, which is defined by the significant terrain features of Edgemont and Steiber. This map was produced as part of the Department of the Interior program for the Development of the Missouri River Basin, capturing the region's transition into mid-century agricultural modernization. The presence of a Gravel Pit near the county line suggests localized industrial activity supporting the area's road network during this era.
