2011 Map of West Twin Butte

About this map

Plain View Cemetery sits at the intersection of County Rd 11 and 26th St SW, serving as a central landmark in this portion of Golden Valley County. The landscape is defined by the drainage basins of Elk Creek and its tributary, East Branch Elk Creek, which carve a network of coulees across the northern and central sections. To the southeast, the terrain rises toward the prominent West Twin Butte, situated near the headwaters of Wannagan Creek and Winter Creek. The road network follows a strict section-line grid typical of the Great Plains, with routes like Westerheim Rd and 159th Ave SW providing access to isolated farmsteads and agricultural tracts. This 2011 survey reflects the enduring rural character of western North Dakota, where transport relies on a mix of established county roads and local gravel routes like Elk Creek Rd.
