2020 Map of Pitt Creek

About this map

Cedar River National Grassland dominates the central portion of this prairie landscape, where the high plains of the Grant and Sioux county line meet. The terrain is defined by a complex drainage system that feeds into the winding course of Cedar Creek at the southern edge of the quadrangle. Several smaller tributaries, including Pitt Creek, Crooked Creek, and Whitmore Creek, carve distinct draws through the undulating grasslands. Human presence is sparse, represented primarily by the rectilinear grid of section lines and gravel roads like 90th St SW and 92nd St SW. This 2020 map documents a remote stretch of North Dakota where the natural topography of the Hay Creek and Timber Creek drainages remains the primary structural influence on the land.
