The Bad River flows across the northern edge of this section of Jones County, carving a distinct valley through the high prairie landscape. The terrain is defined by the extensive drainage systems of Dry Cr, which meanders through numerous draws and coulees such as Ash Draw. This 2015 survey illustrates a sparse ranching environment where the land is organized by a strictly rectilinear road grid including Van Metre Rd and 266th Ave. The absence of dense settlements emphasizes the rural, open character of this South Dakota region. These section lines and county roads, such as 234th St and 227th St, provide the primary navigation through the vast, undulating topography of the West River country.
