About this map

Badlands National Park defines the southern portion of this landscape, where the prairie breaks into the sharp relief of Cedar Pass and Millard Ridge. The northern reaches are anchored by Cactus Flat, a notable junction point on the edge of the high plains. Between these landmarks, a series of seasonal drainages including Big Buffalo Cr, Rake Cr, and Sixteenmile Cr carve through the terrain, illustrating the complex erosional patterns typical of this region. The map also records localized topographical features such as Big Foot Hill, providing a detailed look at the rural road network, including CH 11 and Co RD S 8, which connect isolated ranchlands and public land boundaries during the early 21st century.
