1968 Map of Red Butte NW

About this map

Otter Creek meanders through the heart of the North Dakota prairie, marking the quiet, agrarian landscape across the border of Mercer Co and Oliver Co. During this late 1960s period, the area remained defined by its rural infrastructure, featuring several sites labeled Well or Flowing Well and an industrial Gravel Pit. The map captures a high degree of section-line detail, including a prominent pipeline and numerous fence and field lines that delineate the region's ranching and farming history. Local heritage is grounded in sites such as the Rhein Cem and an additional unnamed cemetery, providing essential points of interest for genealogists tracing early families in this stretch of the Great Plains. In the southern reach of the survey, Brush Cr cuts through the terrain, further illustrating the drainage patterns that shaped local land use.
