1971 Map of Rolette
USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
Rolette serves as a vital rail junction in north-central North Dakota, where the east-west tracks of the Soo Line intersect with the Burlington Northern railroad. This 1971 survey illustrates a prairie landscape defined by significant conservation areas, including the Ox Creek National Wildlife Refuge, Little Gurr Lake National Wildlife Refuge, and Long Lake National Wildlife Refuge. The terrain is divided into regional sections such as Shell Valley and Maryville, punctuated by glacial depressions and water bodies like Little Gurr Lake and Wolf Creek. Genealogists will find the locations of Rolette Cemetery and Westland Cemetery preserved here, while the presence of the Rolette Municipal Airport and a Sewage Disposal Pond reflects the town's mid-century infrastructure. Numerous Gravel Pits scattered across the township indicate the local extraction industry during this era.
