About this map

Sun Prairie Flats occupies the northern reaches of this Phillips County landscape, giving way to a complex system of drainages and upland breaks. The central portion of the sheet is defined by Buckley Lake, a seasonal water body surrounded by a network of coulees including Plummer Coulee and Wilson Coulee. These features represent the subtle topographic shifts characteristic of the region's ranching and prairie lands.

To the south, the terrain rises significantly into the Larb Hills, where Collins Hill provides a distinct high point overlooking Badland Coulee. The hydrology of the area is tied to Sage Creek and Tallow Creek, which cut through the open country. Transportation across these sections is facilitated by rural routes such as Content Rd and Triple Crossing Rd, which connect the isolated flats and hill country.
