1972 Map of Tuttle SW

About this map

The glaciated plains of Kidder County, North Dakota, are defined by numerous prairie potholes and wetlands in this early 1970s survey. A central Townhall serves as a small civic landmark amidst the township divisions of Haynes, Tuttle, and Hestina. Large water bodies like Clear Lake and Cherry Lake include designated Public Access points, reflecting the region's importance for local recreation and conservation. The northern reaches include a National Waterfowl Production Area, highlighting the landscape's role within the migratory flyway. Evidence of local infrastructure and resource extraction appears through several Gravel Pits and a solitary Gravel Pit scattered across the undulating terrain. This map records the prairie landscape before modern agricultural or drainage changes altered the density of these seasonal and permanent wetlands.
