About this map

Timber Creek meanders through this portion of Spink County, defining the drainage patterns of a landscape deeply organized by the Public Land Survey System. The map illustrates a highly structured agricultural environment, where township boundaries like t117n r61w and t118n r62w dictate the layout of the rural road network. This grid is maintained by a series of numbered routes, including Co Rd 7, Co Rd 5, and 165th St, which serve the isolated farmsteads scattered across the plains. The presence of numerous small wetlands and depressions adjacent to Timber Cr suggests the prairie pothole character of the region, reflecting the natural hydrology that persists alongside straightened section-line roads such as 403rd Ave and 399th Ave.
