2011 Map of Scairt Woman Draw

About this map

Scairt Woman Oil Field defines the industrial footprint of this Western North Dakota landscape, where energy extraction meets traditional ranching operations. The terrain is deeply incised by the eponymous Scairt Woman Draw and a complex drainage system including Beicegel Creek, Camp Creek, and Magpie Creek. Human activity is centered on isolated ranching outposts such as Lillibridge Ranch and L-Tachenko Ranch, connected by a network of Forest Service and local roads like 713 and 807. The presence of Palunak Dam on the eastern edge suggests localized water management in this arid environment. This 2011 survey illustrates the modern configuration of the Little Missouri National Grassland area, balancing livestock production with the infrastructure of the Bakken oil region.
