2013 Map of Elk Point NE

About this map

The Big Sioux River carves a meandering path through the landscape of the Iowa and South Dakota border, defining the western portion of this 2013 survey. The terrain is characterized by a series of drainage systems, including Rock Cr, Joy Cr, and Deer Cr, which feed toward the main river valley. Near the southeastern corner, the settlement of Broken Kettle sits adjacent to Broken Kettle Cr, providing a focal point for local history in this agricultural region. The inclusion of Horseshoe Lake illustrates the hydrological remnants typical of the floodplain. A network of rural routes, such as Butcher Rd and N Ridge Rd, connects the scattered farmsteads across the township, following the section lines and natural contours of the river valley.
