2018 Map of Sentinel Butte

About this map

Sentinel Butte sits at a geographic crossroads in western North Dakota, where the high plains break into the distinctive landforms of the badlands. The settlement of Sentinel Butte lies south of the interstate corridor, positioned between the prominent rise of its namesake landform to the south and Camels Hump Butte to the north. This area serves as a primary drainage for local waterways including Andrews Cr and Knutson Cr, which carve through the high prairie. Local history is anchored by the Saint Michaels Cem and the small-scale recreational hub at Camels Hump Lake. The map reveals a transition from traditional township grid roads, such as Square Butte Rd and Camel Hump Rd, to the more modern transportation infrastructure of the Northern Plains.
