2015 Map of Greenwood Colony

About this map

Greenwood Colony and Clearfield Colony anchor this agricultural section of South Dakota, where the geometric precision of the Public Land Survey System defines the landscape. The boundary between Douglas County and Charles Mix County cuts diagonally across the northern townships, intersecting a grid of section-line roads like 287th St and 400th Ave. Community centers and heritage are marked by the presence of Saint Paul Cem and New Salem Cem, providing essential points of reference for genealogists tracking local families. The terrain is characterized by subtle drainage patterns and small depressions typical of the Missouri Plateau, with Cr-14 serving as a primary east-west corridor through the lower half of the quadrangle.
