About the White Butte topo map
White Butte is the highest point in North Dakota, at 3,506 feet above sea level. The White Butte topo map traces the summit and the ground around it from USGS 3DEP elevation data.
This design uses contour lines every 25 feet, a map about 2.5 miles across, 473 feet of relief inside the frame. Every fifth line is drawn heavier, as on a USGS quad, so the shape reads from across the room.
