2014 Map of Williston SE

About this map

Lake Sakakawea dominates this western North Dakota landscape, where the waters of the Missouri River fill the deep breaks along the border of Williams and McKenzie counties. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, notably at Crazy Man Coulee in the northeast and the dissected uplands surrounding Indian Cr and Willow Cr. This 2014 survey documents the modern infrastructure of the Bakken region, including the rural Lindvig Airstrip and a network of section-line roads like 132nd Ave NW and 49th St NW. The presence of Legion Park Loop Rd near the lakeshore suggests recreational access points along the complex, winding shoreline. The map provides a clear record of the interface between the high plains and the massive reservoir, showing how modern transportation routes navigate the prehistoric drainage patterns and coulees of the Badlands fringe.
