2012 Map of Denby

About this map

Wounded Knee Cr meanders southward through this landscape, defining the local drainage and geography of the Pine Ridge region. The small settlement of Denby sits at a crossroads where Denby Rd meets Old Hwy 18, serving as a focal point in an otherwise sparse prairie environment. To the northwest of the townsite, the Native American Cem provides a significant site for local family history and genealogical research. The hydrology of the area is further characterized by several water bodies, including Denby Lake and Lee Lake, while Bartlett Cr and E Prong Wolf Cr extend into the surrounding plains. This mapping captures the rural transport network, including Mouse Creek Rd, which connects the scattered landmarks and water sources across this part of Oglala Lakota County.
