2015 Map of Dallas NW

About this map

Ponca Cr winds through this rural landscape in northern Tripp County, defining the drainage patterns of a region deeply shaped by the Public Land Survey System. The map reveals a strict grid of section lines and gravel roads, such as 287th St and 324th Ave, which partition the prairie into township blocks like T97n R75w and T96n R74w. While the terrain is largely dedicated to agriculture and open range, localized water features like Roosevelt Lake provide contrast to the surrounding upland contours. Modern transportation is anchored by the corridor of highway 183, which bisects the western half of the quadrangle. This 2015 survey reflects the enduring character of the South Dakota plains, where the vast majority of the land remains divided for agricultural use according to century-old survey standards.
