About this map

Turtle Cr and its many meandering branches define this portion of Meade Co, South Dakota. The drainage system is intricate, featuring the W Br Turtle Cr, N Br Turtle Cr, and E Br Turtle Cr as they converge across the prairie. This landscape is primarily shaped by these seasonal waterways and the section lines that govern the local road network.

Modern rural infrastructure is mapped through routes like Red Sceffold Rd and United School Rd, which provide access to the remote ranchlands between the creek beds. To the south, the terrain transitions into the drainages of Brushy Cr, Middle Cr, and Cherry Cr. The map captures a contemporary look at land management and water distribution in a region where geography is dictated by the subtle elevation changes of the western plains.
