2015 Map of Artichoke Butte

About this map

Artichoke Butte stands as a prominent landmark above the eastern banks of the Missouri River in this portion of Sully County. The landscape is defined by the massive expanse of Lake Oahe, which dominates the northwestern corner of the sheet, and the smaller Troy Lake situated to the east. This 2015 survey reveals a rigid, expansive grid of rural section roads, including 174th St and 291st Ave, that divide the open prairie and agricultural lands. The primary corridor through this sparsely populated region is Route 1804, which runs north-south, providing a vital link through the high plains terrain. The map's detailed topography illustrates the sharp elevation changes near the river bluffs compared to the flatter tablelands found throughout the eastern townships.
