2011 Map of Doaks Butte

About this map

Little Missouri River meanders through this portion of Harding County, defining a landscape shaped by its winding channel and numerous drainage tributaries. The area is dominated by the prominent landform of Doaks Butte, which rises above the surrounding plains. A sparse network of roads, including Camp Crook Rd and County Hwy 867, provides the primary access through this western South Dakota terrain. Significant watercourses such as Boxelder Creek and Soda Creek feed into the river system, illustrating the natural watershed patterns of the region. The map also documents local infrastructure like Oil Well Rd, hinting at the industrial footprint within this rural landscape. This survey provides a clear view of the topographical relationship between the river valley and the elevated butte formations in the early 21st century.
