About this map

The small settlement of Moffit serves as the focal point of this Burleigh County landscape, situated where the grid of sections meets the expansive waters of Long Lake. This modern survey illustrates the persistent agricultural and rural layout of the region, defined by a rigid network of section-line roads such as 314th St SE and 115th Ave SE. A single high point, Moffit Butte, rises near the townsite, providing a distinct landmark overlooking the lake's western shore.

Evidence of the community's local history is visible in the presence of the Po and the Moffit Community Cem, which remains a primary genealogical reference for the area. The map also delineates the jurisdictional boundary between Burleigh Co and Emmons Co to the south. The terrain is characterized by numerous small wetlands and seasonal ponds scattered throughout the northern sections, typical of the prairie pothole region.
