2021 Map of Brewer Butte

About this map

Brewer Butte stands as a prominent landmark in this prairie landscape along the border of Corson and Dewey counties. The area is defined by the winding course of the Little Moreau River in the south and the seasonal drainage of High Bank Creek to the north. This modern survey illustrates a sparse ranching and grazing environment, where the land is organized by the Public Land Survey System across several townships, including t17n r23e and t18n r24e. A network of rural section-line roads, such as Co Rd 3I and Co Rd 4, provides access across the drainage divides. The lack of concentrated settlements highlights the open, rural character of the South Dakota plains, where geography is dominated by subtle elevation changes and natural watercourses.
