2024 Map of Dana

About this map

Dana sits at the heart of this prairie landscape in Emmons County, where the township grid meets the natural winding paths of the region's waterways. This 2024 survey captures the drainage patterns of the Missouri Plateau, defined by the meandering course of Long Lake Creek as it flows across the northern sections. The area is characterized by a sparse settlement pattern, with the small community of Dana serving as a central point along 58th St SE. Numerous seasonal and perennial streams, including Hawk Creek and Goose Creek, carve subtle relief into the terrain. In the southeast, the West Branch Long Lake Creek adds to the complex hydrography of the township. The map provides a detailed view of the section lines and rural road networks, such as 11th Ave SE and 14th Ave SE, which have organized this agricultural land since the original land surveys.
