About this map

The western edges of Williston meet the vast waters of Lake Sakakawea in this detailed 2017 study of the North Dakota landscape. The map illustrates a city expanding into the prairie, with residential grids like Bison Dr and Riverside Dr reaching toward the Missouri River's flooded valley. This transition from urban development to rural ranching is marked by local aviation hubs, including Sloulin Field International Airport near the city center and the Ring Rock Ranch Airport to the north.

Water management and drainage define the surrounding terrain, carved by Sand Cr and the descriptively named Chinaman Coulee. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies significant land use at Saint Joseph Cem and Riverview Cem, positioned near the historical riverbanks. The survey also preserves the precise locations of rural infrastructure, such as the intersection of Co Hwy 7 and 57th St NW, providing a clear view of the modern county road system.
