About this map

Skaar occupies the northeastern corner of this 1970s landscape, positioned near the convergence of drainage systems along the Montana-North Dakota state line. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of watercourses, including the westward-flowing Smith Creek and the southern reaches of Henry Creek. This survey highlights the rural industrial activity of the period, particularly the presence of several Scoria Pits, which indicate the localized extraction of baked clay common to the region's geology. The area is divided by multiple political boundaries, where McKenzie and Golden Valley Counties meet, as well as the border with Wibaux County. These markers, along with the meandering paths of Deadman Creek and Poison Spring Creek, illustrate a sparse but functional ranching and extraction economy during the mid-1970s.
