2012 Map of Draper

About this map

Draper sits at the intersection of rural transit and rolling plains, anchored by its Po and a small grid centered on Main St and 1st St. This South Dakota settlement is defined by the waterways that carve through the landscape, most notably the meandering course of Medicine Creek and its tributary, N Fork Medicine Creek. To the northwest, E Br White Clay Creek drains the higher ground, while the southern reaches are marked by the presence of Bull Creek and Spring Creek. The layout of the region reflects the systematic organization of the West, with major thoroughfares like Jones Co Hwy S6 and Lincoln Rd providing structure to the surrounding agricultural land. North of the town center, the Draper Cem serves as a silent landmark for local genealogy and history.
