2015 Map of Antelope Creek West

About this map

Antelope Creek and Battle Creek define the drainage patterns of this high-plains landscape in northwestern South Dakota. This 2015 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey details a sparsely populated expanse of Butte County, where the topography is shaped by the winding paths of Fourmile Creek and various intermittent streams. The map reveals the systematic organization of the frontier through the Public Land Survey System, showing the boundaries between t13n r3e, t13n r4e, t12n r3e, and t12n r4e. This digital-age record is a essential tool for understanding modern land use and drainage in an area defined by its open terrain and water-carved coulees.
