Lake Sakakawea dominates this 2011 survey, illustrating the vast reach of the reservoir created by the Garrison Dam along the Missouri River. The map focuses on the watery expanse southeast of New Town, where the original river channel is submerged beneath the reservoir's broad surface. On the southern shoreline, Independence Point provides a prominent landform overlooking the water, while the transportation network is represented primarily by Bia 13, reflecting the tribal infrastructure of the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation. The map offers a precise view of the shoreline and the modern hydrology of this central North Dakota region during the early 21st century.
