2015 Map of Dead Horse Draw

About this map

Dead Horse Draw and Chasing Hawk Draw define the topography of this high plains landscape in Ziebach County. The drainage network is dense with intermittent waterways including Cherry Cr, Deer Cr, Johnny Cr, and Bull Cr, which carve through the terrain as they move toward the larger basin. While the area remains largely open rangeland, the presence of Cherry Creek Rd and Bia-13 indicates the essential transit routes connecting this part of the Cheyenne River Indian Reservation. The map shows the section lines of Townships 8 and 9 North, providing a precise grid for those tracing land allotments or historical property boundaries. This 2015 survey reflects a landscape where the natural hydrology of draws and creeks like Felix Cr continues to dictate the patterns of movement and use.
