1972 Map of Paradise Flats

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Cannonball River winds sharply through this section of Grant County, defining a landscape of deep coulees and expansive plateaus. The topography is dominated by the broad upland of Paradise Flats to the south and the prominent rise of Schultz to the north. These high plains are dissected by numerous drainage systems, including Boxelder Creek and Snake Creek, which carve intricate patterns into the terrain as they descend toward the river valley. Sparse industrial footprints are visible in the form of a Gravel Pit and a lone Well, indicating the localized extraction activities common to this rural region. The survey provides a clear view of the section lines and rural infrastructure in the early 1970s, showcasing the transition from the flat agricultural reaches to the broken ground along the river's path.
