2021 Map of Estelline SE

About this map

Coteau des Prairies defines the rolling topography of this eastern South Dakota landscape, where the plateau transition meets the agricultural plains. The 2021 survey reveals a territory primarily organized by its section lines and watercourses, including the Big Sioux River and several ephemeral runs like Peg Munky Run and Bullhead Run. Cultural landmarks are few but significant for local history, centered around the Saint Johns Cem and the settlement area of Johnsonville. The map documents the boundary between Deuel and Brookings counties, tracking the infrastructure of South Dakota Highway 28 as it crosses the northern section of the quadrangle. This detailed topographical study provides a clear view of the drainage patterns for N Deer Cr and the rural road network that facilitates the region's agricultural industry.
