2015 Map of Charlie Creek

About this map

Charlie Cr and its tributaries carve a complex drainage pattern across this Dewey County landscape, defining the rural character of the Cheyenne River Reservation. The terrain is dominated by the seasonal waterways of the Tall Prairie Chicken Cr system, including both the E Br Tall Prairie Chicken Cr and W Br Tall Prairie Chicken Cr. Human imprint is sparse, concentrated primarily along the Bia-8 corridor, which serves as the principal artery through these sections. The map provides a detailed view of the Public Land Survey System divisions, specifically t12n r27e, t12n r28e, t11n r27e, and t11n r28e, which organize the land into a structured grid typical of the northern plains. This 2015 survey illustrates how traditional grazing lands and open range remain the primary use of the area, punctuated only by the winding paths of Fox Cr and E Br Rousseau Cr.
