About this map

The Little Missouri River carves a deep path through the North Dakota badlands, anchoring this survey of the rugged Billings County interior. Within the boundaries of Theodore Roosevelt National Park and the surrounding Little Missouri National Grassland, the terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages including Roosevelt Creek, Mikes Creek, and Blacktail Creek. The landscape is dominated by elevation markers like Black Top Butte, providing a detailed look at the erosional patterns and plateaus characteristic of this region.

A few isolated routes such as E River Rd and Nolin Rd provide access through the complex topography, following the natural contours and benchlands above the river. The lack of concentrated settlements highlights the protected status of the land, preserving the same drainage patterns and landforms that defined the area during the early ranching era and the establishment of the national park system.
