1974 Map of Wannagan Creek West

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Wannagan Creek and its southern counterpart, Little Wannagan Creek, carve through the expansive badlands landscape along the boundary of Golden Valley and Billings counties. This mid-1970s survey illustrates a largely unpopulated ranching and grazing region where water sources are the primary landmarks. In the southwest, the distinctive landform of East Twin Butte rises above the surrounding drainage networks, serving as a prominent geographical anchor. The map reveals the intricate dendritic drainage patterns formed by Winter Creek and Crooked Creek, highlighting the erosional character of this North Dakota terrain. Remote and primarily defined by its hydrology, the area includes occasional wells that supported the agricultural and livestock operations of the time, documenting a moment in the state's rural development before significant modern changes.
