2018 Map of Deep Creek NW

About this map

The Moreau River meanders across this rural expanse of Perkins County, shaping the drainage patterns of the western South Dakota plains. This 2018 survey reveals a landscape largely defined by natural hydrology and a sparse grid of section lines, where the river valley is the primary geographic focal point. Smaller intermittent drainages like Swan Draw feed into the main waterway, cutting through the high prairie terrain. The absence of major settlements highlights the area's enduring ranching and agricultural character, with connectivity provided by local routes such as Cottonwood Rd. This map offers a clear view of the Public Land Survey System boundaries, including t14n r14e and t15n r14e, which have structured land ownership in this region for generations.
