About this map

The Little Missouri National Grassland dominates this landscape in McKenzie County, defined by a complex network of drainage systems and high plateaus. The terrain is characterized by the namesake Wolf Coulee and elevated features like Maverick Flat, where the high plains break into a series of deeply carved creek beds. Waterways including Bennett Creek, Bummer Creek, and Beicegel Creek wind through the township lines, illustrating the natural erosion patterns of the North Dakota badlands.

Modern transportation and recreation corridors are represented by the intersection of Canyon Creek Rd and the long-distance Maah Daah Hey Trl. This confluence of county roads and backcountry trails provides a clear view of how this public land is managed for both transit and wilderness access. The presence of smaller paths like the Bennett Trl further highlights the area's role as a destination for navigation and exploration within the protected grassland borders.
