2017 Map of Batesland NW

About this map

The high plains of Oglala Lakota County are defined by the winding course of the Little White River and its seasonal tributaries in this 2017 survey. The landscape is a network of intermittent drainage and rural corridors, where Porcupine Cr and Stinking Water Cr cut through the undulating terrain of the Pine Ridge region. Transportation across these open lands relies on a grid of secondary routes, notably American Horse Creek Rd and Mouse Creek Rd, which provide access to remote ranching areas and residential clusters. The map illustrates the contemporary land management patterns within the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, where township and range boundaries like t37n r41w overlay a landscape that remains largely defined by its natural hydrology and the persistent paths of local county roads.
