1970 Map of Wannagan Creek East

About this map

The Little Missouri River carves a winding path through this corner of Billings County, anchoring the northern reaches of the Theodore Roosevelt National Memorial Park (South Unit). This 1970 landscape is defined by its complex drainage network, where the river meets several significant tributaries including Wannagan Creek, Franks Creek, and Government Creek. The terrain features distinct geological and historical markers, from the high elevation of Big Plateau to the fossil-rich Petrified Forest and the prominent landmark of Pikes Peak. Local rural life is reflected in the presence of the Myers Sch and various water sources such as Dugans Waterhole and numerous flowing wells. This map offers a clear view of the North Dakota badlands before later developments, showing the remote character of the memorial park and its surrounding coulees and draws.
