2014 Map of Stockyard Creek

About this map

Spring Brook sits at the northern edge of this high plains landscape in Williams County, where the terrain is defined by the dendritic drainage patterns of three major local waterways. The southern reaches of the map are bisected by ND-1804, a route following the historical corridors north of the Missouri River. Between the high ridges, the courses of Stony Cr, Stockyard Cr, and Long Cr carve through the prairie, illustrating the natural water management of the region before it reaches the larger river valleys to the south. The intersection of CR-11 and the sectional road grid, including 129th Ave NW and 50th St NW, shows the persistent geometric organization of North Dakota's agricultural and ranching lands. This 2014 survey records the rural infrastructure of the Williston Basin during a period of significant regional activity, capturing the precise layout of section lines and remote access roads.
