About this map

Ft. Pierre National Grassland dominates the southern landscape of this Lyman and Stanley County border region, preserving a sprawling expanse of mixed-grass prairie. The terrain is defined by a dendritic drainage pattern where intermittent streams such as Antelope Creek and Timber Creek cut through the high plains toward the northeast, while the southern reaches are shaped by the upper basins of Cedar Creek and the S Br Cedar Creek.

Evidence of ranching and land management is seen in the placement of stock ponds and water sources like Williams Reservoir and Nels Reservoir. The road network is sparse, consisting primarily of section-line routes and gravel roads such as Warcreek Rd and 221st St. This map provides a detailed look at the public-private land mosaic within the national grassland during the mid-2010s, illustrating the township and range divisions of T109N and T108N.
