2012 Map of Antelope Creek West

About this map

Antelope Creek meanders through this portion of Butte County, defining the drainage patterns of a landscape characterized by its hydrological network. The area is defined by the convergence of several significant watercourses, including the central reaches of Battle Creek and the northern stretch of Fourmile Creek. These natural features suggest a terrain shaped by erosion and runoff, typical of the regional geography in South Dakota. While the map is sparse regarding named settlements, the intricate web of unnamed roads and trails shown intersecting these creeks indicates a land utilized for ranching or resource management. This 2012 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure and physical landforms before further modern development altered the surface features.
