1971 Map of Moffit

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Long Lake dominates this central North Dakota landscape, its waters and surrounding shoreline protected as part of the National Wildlife Refuge. The small settlement of Moffit serves as the focal point for this rural area, situated at the intersection of a Burlington Northern rail line and Highway 83. The terrain transitions from the marshy lowlands of Long Creek to the distinct prominence of Moffit Butte to the east. Evidence of the early 1970s local infrastructure is found in the scattered Gravel Pits and the Moffit Cemetery located just south of town. The southern portion of the map reveals the open landscape of the Buchanan Valley, highlighting the characteristic township and section grid that defines the Great Plains. Industrial and transportation signatures are visible through the dual presence of the Soo Line and Burlington Northern railroads, which historically shaped the region's agricultural economy.
