1952 Map of Tappen NE

About this map

Salt Alkaline Lake and numerous prairie potholes define the undulating terrain of this Kidder County landscape during the early 1950s. The small settlement of Ladoga sits in the southern portion of the map, positioned along the Burlington Northern railroad line which facilitated the movement of grain and goods across the North Dakota plains. The map reveals a structured rural society organized into townships such as Buckeye, Weiser, and Williams, each supporting essential local infrastructure like School No 1 and School No 2. Outdoor recreation and conservation are evident at Camp Whitney State Park on the shores of Sweetwater Lake. The distribution of these features, alongside others like Kleiter Slough, illustrates a region where water management and agriculture were the primary drivers of settlement and land use.
