2021 Map of Capa

About this map

Capa is the primary settlement on this South Dakota landscape, situated along the northern banks of the Bad River. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the river and its tributaries, including Big Prairie Dog Cr and Dry Cr. Local road networks like O'Conner Loop and 258th Ave provide access to the rural surroundings and isolated points of interest. Genealogists and local historians will find significant detail in the inclusion of Saint Mark's Cem and Riverview Cem, which serve as quiet landmarks in this sparsely populated region. To the south, the prominent elevation of Flat Top Butte rises above the prairie, offering a clear geographic marker for the area's topography. The map illustrates a ranching and rural residential pattern typical of central Jones County, where land use is dictated by the availability of water and the rise of the buttes.
