About this map

Little White River meanders across the center of this South Dakota landscape, defining a network of wetlands and hydrologic features in Bennett County. The waterway flows eastward, eventually collecting in the Little White River Pool Reservoir, a significant water body in the southeastern portion of the quadrangle. This area is characterized by its drainage patterns, where Spring Cr and Lake Creek feed into the primary river system.

Deadmans Lake sits isolated in the central plains north of the river, while White Lake occupies the far northeastern corner. The map captures the remote character of the High Plains, where the terrain is marked by shifting elevations and seasonal water bodies. The survey reflects the organized public land system of the early 21st century, showing the township and range divisions such as t37n r36w that still dictate the rural layout of the region.
