About this map

Antelope Cr and Timber Cr define the northern drainage of this Lyman County landscape, which is largely characterized by the expansive grazing lands and section-line roads of central South Dakota. The topography is shaped by intermittent watercourses like Cedar Cr and the S Br Cedar Cr, which provide essential water management for the region’s agricultural operations. A notable man-made feature is the Williams 783 Reservoir in the northeast, illustrating the reliance on local water storage in this semi-arid environment. Infrastructure is sparse, consisting of rural routes such as Warcreek Rd and 221st St, along with the north-south corridor of Co Hwy 22. This survey reflects a period of modern ranching and land management where the grid of the Public Land Survey System continues to dictate the local transit and property patterns.
