1981 Map of Robinson Coulee

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Glacial prairie potholes and seasonal drainages define the landscape of Ward County in the early 1980s. The northern portion of the quadrangle is marked by deep erosional cuts including Bonnes Coulee, Robinson Coulee, and Newman Coulee, which contrast with the flatter terrain of Brillian and Greeley townships to the south. Land use in this era is a mix of conservation and extraction, evidenced by the expansive National Waterfowl Production Area pitted with small wetlands, and a significant Strip Mine operation near Bowers Coulee. Local history is anchored by the German Cem and Calvary Chapel, while infrastructure such as a rural Townhall, a Radio Tower, and a remote Landing Strip indicate the area's specialized transportation and communication needs during this period of North Dakota's development.
