2017 Map of Black Eyes

About this map

Black Eyes marks a focal point in this portion of Bennett County, a landscape defined by an intricate network of drainages that feed into the local watershed. The terrain is dominated by the meandering paths of Bear-in-the-Lodge Cr, Pretty Hip Cr, and Red Horse Cr, which carve through the plains. These waterways, along with Horse Cr and Spring Cr, reflect the vital importance of water sources in this region of South Dakota. Human intervention is sparse but intentional, primarily represented by Hisle Rd, which provides a north-south transit corridor across the township boundaries of t39n r37w and t38n r37w. This survey captures the quiet, rural character of the area where traditional land divisions meet the natural contours of the northern plains.
