2012 Map of Date

About this map

Date represents a small settlement node in the wide-open landscape of Perkins County, centered at the intersection of Date Rd and Peggy Creek Rd. The community’s presence is anchored by the Date Cem, located to the southeast near the meandering banks of Antelope Cr. The map reveals a land defined by its drainage systems, where small tributaries like Dog Cr and Brushy Cr carve through the high plains. A sparse network of section-line roads, including Antelope Rd and Ridgeview Rd, provides the primary structure for this ranching and agricultural region. This survey captures the remote character of northwestern South Dakota, showing how names like Date persist as geographic markers even as the landscape remains largely dedicated to open range and creek-fed draws.
