The international border between North Dakota and Canada defines this 2014 survey of the northern plains. This specific map focuses on the terrain just north of the boundary, where the landscape is characterized by the winding path of Buffalo Creek. The waterway meanders across the territory, serving as the primary drainage feature for this segment of the prairie. Produced by the U.S. Geological Survey, the map provides a precise look at the hydrography of the region at a time when digital mapping standards were becoming the norm for topographies, capturing the natural hydrology of the area before any subsequent landscape alterations.
