2011 Map of Bainville SW

About this map

The Missouri River carves a winding path through the heart of this Roosevelt County landscape, defining the character of the terrain just north of the state line. At this point in the early 21st century, the area around Lakeside remains predominantly rural, characterized by the deep erosional cuts of Benson Coulee and Sheep Camp Coulee that drain toward the river. Local infrastructure is sparse, centered on gravel routes like S Bainville Rd and the Bainville-Snowden Rd which connect isolated homesteads and water management features. Small-scale hydraulic works such as Belushi Dam and Burgess Reservoir Dam manage the seasonal flows of Little Muddy Creek and its tributaries. For genealogists and local historians, the Nohly Cemetery provides a specific point of reference in the southeastern corner of the quadrangle, serving as a reminder of the generations that have worked this stretch of the Missouri valley.
