About this map

The Little Shell Church Cem stands as a focal point of heritage in this landscape, situated near the headwaters of Little Shell Cr. The topography is dominated by the sprawling reaches of Lake Sakakawea and the Missouri River, where the Van Hook Arm creates a complex shoreline of inlets and peninsulas. This region, where Mountrail Co, Mclean Co, and Dunn Co converge, reflects a transition between upland prairie and the massive reservoir created by the mid-century damming of the Missouri. North of the river, a network of rural roads like 29th St NW and Bia RD 601 provides access to the higher ground near Muskrat Lake, while the southern reaches descend toward the submerged river valley.
