1968 Map of Red Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Red Butte dominates this prairie landscape along the border of Mercer Co and Oliver Co, where the high ground falls away into the winding drainage of Brady Creek. In the late 1960s, this area remained largely defined by traditional township sections and rural land use, marked by a quiet network of family and community landmarks. Researchers will find several burial grounds including Nisbet Cem, Red Butte Cem, and Spring Brook Cem, which serve as vital anchors for local genealogy in this sparsely populated stretch of North Dakota. Modern infrastructure is represented by a prominent Pipeline cutting diagonally across the southern sections toward Otter Cr, while a lone Gravel Pit in the north suggests the small-scale industrial activity of the period.
