2018 Map of Moffit SW

About this map

Rattlesnake Butte rises prominently above the surrounding grasslands of Emmons County, providing a high-ground landmark near the dramatic incision of Devils Gulch. This 2018 survey reveals a landscape of high prairie drained by the meandering courses of Badger Cr and Glencoe Cr. The terrain is defined by a strictly orthogonal grid of rural roads, including 55th St SW and 2nd Ave SW, which facilitate movement between the vast sections of T136n R78w and T135n R78w. These section lines reflect the enduring legacy of the Public Land Survey System in North Dakota, where the interplay of natural watercourses and the artificial grid shapes the distribution of farmsteads and wetlands across the Buchanan Valley Township region.
