About this map

Lake Francis Case dominates the western edge of this landscape in the early 21st century, where the Missouri River forms a broad reservoir. The map depicts a rural landscape defined by a structured grid of local roads like 347th Ave and 241st St that traverse the rolling plains. Centrally located, the settlement of Grosse stands as a focal point for the surrounding agricultural community.

A network of drainage systems, including Wolf Cr and De Smet Cr, flows toward the main river channel, while the interior is punctuated by bodies of water such as Bedashosha Lake. This topographic study provides a clear view of the area's physical geography, from the banks of Bad Hand Cr to the various unnamed ponds and wetlands scattered across the township, illustrating the balance between managed land and the natural hydrology of central South Dakota.
