2011 Map of Williston SE

About this map

The Missouri River dominates this landscape southeast of Williston, where it begins its widening transition into the massive Lake Sakakawea. This 2011 survey captures the river's braided channels and shifting bars as it flows past the northern tip of the reservoir. Tributaries like Indian Creek and Willow Creek join the main stem, while the uniquely named Crazy Man Coulee cuts through the northern bluffs. The map reflects a rural network of roads including County Hwy 11 and various section-line routes such as 130th Rd NW, illustrating the geographic layout of Williams County before the most recent decade of intensive development. It is an essential document for understanding the hydrologic interface between the river and the reservoir.
