2015 Map of Garretson East

About this map

Garretson stands as the primary hub in this borderland landscape where Minnehaha County, South Dakota, meets Minnesota. The geography is defined by the Coteau des Prairies upland, with Split Rock Creek carving through the terrain near the distinctive Devils Gulch. This 2015 survey reveals a deeply rooted rural community, evidenced by a high density of local burial sites such as Saint Rose Cem, Zion Cem, and West Palisades Cem. To the south, the small settlement of Booge sits along the section lines, while Springwater Cr and Annie Anderson Cr drain the eastern slopes of the plateau. The map details a rigid grid of township roads, including 486th Ave and 111th St, which organize the agricultural life of the region.
