2017 Map of Chelsea

About this map

Chelsea anchors the western edge of this landscape, situated at the crossroads of a rural grid that spans the borders of Faulk, Edmunds, Brown, and Spink counties. The terrain is defined by a series of glacial depressions and winding waterways, most notably the meandering course of Snake Creek which cuts through the central and eastern sections. This prairie environment is dotted with significant water bodies, including N Scatterwood Lake, S Scatterwood Lake, and the isolated Alkali Lake. For those researching local heritage, the map identifies key community sites such as the Trinity Lutheran Cem in the northeast and the Scatterwood Lakeside Cem near the western shoreline. The intricate network of section roads like 153rd St and 155th St reveals a settlement pattern built around agricultural land divisions and natural drainage basins.
