2021 Map of Ames

About this map

Ames sits at the junction of Co Rd 7 and Co Rd 6, serving as a central point in this prairie landscape of central South Dakota. The surrounding terrain is characterized by high-elevation depressions and significant water features, most notably the wide expanse of Collins Slough in the northwest and Wall Lake near the eastern border. The rectilinear road grid, including 208th St and 354th Ave, defines the agricultural sections of Hand County, illustrating the enduring township and range system that organized this region. These section lines guide the eye across a landscape where subtle elevation changes create a complex network of seasonal wetlands and drainage patterns typical of the glaciated plains.
