2014 Map of Bowman-Haley Dam

About this map

The North Fork Grand River meanders across the border of North Dakota and South Dakota, where the Bowman-Haley Dam contains the waters of Bowman-Haley Lake. This map documents a sparsely populated ranching landscape where the local geography is defined by small watercourses like Wilson Cr and the secluded Vessey Lake near the southern edge of the survey. The grid of rural roads, including Stateline Rd and Vessey Loop, provides access to the high plains terrain straddling the line between Bowman and Harding counties. Genealogists may find interest in the Haley Cem, a lonely landmark situated on the northern side of the river before it bends through the rugged drainage system of the basin.
