2021 Map of Agar SW

About this map

Okobojo Creek winds through the southeastern corner of this Sully County landscape, defining the local drainage pattern amidst a high-plains grid of section lines and gravel roads. This modern survey reflects the enduring structure of the Public Land Survey System, with township boundaries for t116n r78w and t115n r77w organizing the vast agricultural tracts. The terrain is notably sparse, characterized by a series of ephemeral wetlands and depressions that collect seasonal water in the central and northern reaches of the quadrangle. Transport and movement across this remote section of South Dakota are facilitated by a systematic network of numbered routes, including Agar Rd and 182nd St, which connect dispersed homesteads to the wider region. The map provides a precise contemporary record of the hydrography and topography of the Missouri River plateau area before it descends toward the river valley to the west.
