About this map

Chadron anchors the western edge of this 2011 survey, where the urban grid meets the agricultural landscape of Dawes County. The area is defined by the branching paths of Bordeaux Creek, which splits into Big Bordeaux Creek and Little Bordeaux Creek as it winds northward toward the Marshall Reservoir. This man-made water body, held by Marshall Dam, serves as a primary landmark in the northern reaches of the quadrangle.

Public land and community infrastructure are well-documented, from the Dawes County Fairgrounds and O and N Airport near the city, to the recreational grounds of the Spotted Tail Campground and Spotted Tail Trailhead in the south. The placement of Highland Cemetery east of the city center provides a point of interest for genealogists, while the network of rural roads like Beaver Valley Rd and Slim Buttes Rd illustrates the modern connectivity of this Great Plains environment.
