2024 Map of Pearl Butte NW

About this map

Cedar Creek meanders across the southern and western portions of this North Dakota landscape, defining the local drainage patterns near the border of Hettinger and Adams counties. The area is characterized by a high-plains topography where the land rises into prominent buttes and ridges, typical of the region's unglaciated terrain. A disciplined grid of rural roads, such as 81st St SW and 15th Ave NE, provides the primary structure for land access and agricultural management. This 2024 survey reflects the modern configuration of these prairie lands, where the PLSS township boundaries of t132n r94w and t131n r94w intersect. The map serves as a contemporary record of the sparsely populated ranching and farming country, detailing the precise drainage of Cedar Creek tributaries and the maintained section-line road network.
