2021 Map of Cottonwood Creek NW

About this map

The Grand River meanders through this portion of Corson County, carving a distinct path through the northern plains of South Dakota. This 2021 survey illustrates a sparse, ranch-oriented landscape defined by its drainage systems and section-line roads. The river’s winding course is joined by several ephemeral tributaries, including Cedar Boy Cr from the north and Meadow Cr and Black Horse Butte Cr from the south. Connectivity in this open country is maintained by a grid of rural thoroughfares such as Morristown Rd, Co-218th Ave, and 115th St. The map provides a detailed view of the Public Land Survey System township and range divisions, showing the underlying structure of land ownership and management in these vast stretches of the Standing Rock region.
