2015 Map of Artesian NE

About this map

W Redstone Cr meanders across this rural section of the South Dakota prairie, where four counties converge. The landscape is defined by the Public Land Survey System, creating a precise grid of sections and section-line roads like 420th Ave and 220th St. This area represents the open agricultural character of the Glacial Lake Agassiz region, where subtle elevation changes guide the flow of Redstone Cr and Jim Cr. The convergence of Beadle Co, Kingsbury Co, Sanborn Co, and Miner Co boundaries highlights the map's significance for local administrative history and land ownership research. The lack of concentrated settlements underscores the vast, open-range nature of the terrain during the early twenty-first century, preserving the original homestead layout established during the era of prairie settlement.
