1979 Map of Square Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Square Butte rises above the rolling grasslands of Golden Valley County, serving as a prominent landmark in this corner of North Dakota. In the late 1970s, the landscape reflected a combination of cattle ranching and emerging energy interests, evidenced by the presence of numerous Oil Wells and Drill Holes scattered across the township lines. Movement through the area followed established corridors like South Square Butte Road and Garner Creek Road, which provided access to the drainages of Fisher Run and Garner Creek. The map documents a quiet period of rural activity, where traditional topography meets industrial utility, as seen with the prominent Pipeline cutting across the southeastern corner near Dry Creek. Researchers will find a clear record of land use and resource extraction from this era.
