2012 Map of Badnation
USGS Topo · Published 2012About this map
The White River winds through this Mellette County landscape, defining the northern geography where it meets the drainage of Williams Cr. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the small settlement of Badnation sits near the headwaters of Louis Cr, connected by local roads to the surrounding high plains. The map records important community markers for local history and genealogy, specifically the Saint Catherine Cem and Rosebud Cem, located east of the central valley. The drainage patterns of Oak Cr and its tributaries reveal the erosion-carved terrain characteristic of this part of South Dakota, showing how the limited water sources shaped the placement of rural homesteads and roads.
