1949 Map of Westhope SW

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Glacial prairie potholes and subtle topographic depressions define this corner of Bottineau County, surveyed in the late 1940s as part of the Missouri River Basin development program. The landscape is organized by the rigid township and range system, which at this time supported a sparse network of rural institutions like Zion Ch and the district school system. This specific area highlights the presence of Stinson Sch No 3 and Stinson Sch No 1, which served the farming communities across the townships of Bentinck, Hastings, Reneville, and Sherman. The map provides an exceptionally clear view of the complex wetland drainage patterns and small seasonal basins that characterize this North Dakota terrain before widespread modern agricultural land-leveling changed many such features.
