2017 Map of Moffit NW

About this map

Brittin sits on the high plains of the North Dakota prairie, marking a central point of settlement in this northern section of the Missouri River plateau. The landscape is defined by the gentle drainage of Glencoe Cr, which winds through the southern portion of the quadrangle across the border of Burleigh and Emmons Counties. This 2017 survey illustrates the enduring rectilinear grid of the Public Land Survey System, where section lines are traced by an extensive network of local roads such as Moffit Rd, 128th Ave SE, and 210th St SE. The map provides a clear record of the rural township structure, including the divisions of Township 137 North, Range 77 West, showing how the land remains partitioned for agriculture and grazing well into the 21st century.
