2011 Map of Cannon Ball SW

About this map

Beaver Holes Creek winds through this expanse of the Cannonball District in Sioux County, where the prairie landscape is defined by a sparse network of section-line roads and seasonal watercourses. The drainage patterns of the Missouri River plateau are clearly visible, with Fool Bear Creek and Battle Creek cutting through the terrain. This 2011 record of the landscape reveals a largely undeveloped rural region, where infrastructure is limited to primary corridors like 14th Ave SW and 75th St. Local historians can observe the unchanged natural topography and the orientation of modern county roads that follow the historic land survey grid, marking the quiet character of south-central North Dakota just north of the South Dakota border.
