1951 Map of Schuster Flats NE

About this map

Dobie Butte stands as a prominent landmark in this arid stretch of the Missouri River Basin during the early 1950s. The landscape is defined by a series of parallel drainage systems, including Fivemile Creek, Sixmile Creek, and the multiple branches of the Tenmile Creek system, such as North Fork Tenmile Creek and Middle Fork Tenmile Creek. This period of mapping was conducted as part of a larger federal program for basin development, capturing a snapshot of the region's topography shortly after aerial photography was utilized for more precise surveying.
