1972 Map of Pearl Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Pearl Lake and Mud Lake anchor this 1970s landscape in Stutsman County, defined by the glacial pothole topography of central North Dakota. The area is heavily managed for conservation, with numerous tracts of the National Waterfowl Production Area scattered across the prairie. The Burlington Northern railroad cuts through the northwestern corner of the quadrangle, serving as a primary transit corridor through the township. The map reveals a sparsely populated agricultural region where local industry is limited to scattered Gravel Pits, and communication infrastructure is marked by prominent Radio Towers. This survey provides a meticulous record of the natural depressions and marshlands that characterize the Missouri Coteau, before many smaller wetlands were further altered by modern land use.
