About this map

Stark Co and Hettinger Co meet along the southern boundary of this 1960 survey, a landscape defined by the drainage of Plum Creek and its unnamed tributaries. The area exhibits a classic North Dakota township structure, divided into the civil districts of Madison and Campbell. This map captures the rural educational landscape of the mid-twentieth century, preserving the exact locations of local landmarks such as School No 1 and School No 4. This topography was documented as part of the Department of the Interior program for the development of the Missouri River Basin, reflecting a period of systematic resource mapping across the Great Plains. The intricate contour lines reveal a terrain of subtle rises and creek valleys, where property lines and unimproved dirt roads followed the section-line grid typical of the region's agricultural layout.
