2015 Map of Grover

About this map

Coteau des Prairies, a vast glacial plateau, dominates this region of eastern South Dakota along the border of Codington and Hamlin counties. The landscape is defined by the prairie pothole region's characteristic wetlands and basins, including Goose Lake and Baxter Slough. Small settlements like Grover and Hazel anchor the agricultural grid, while the area's rural history is preserved through several scattered burial sites. Genealogists will find notable locations such as Saint Peter's Catholic Cem and the uniquely named Strange Graves. The map documents a sparse but enduring network of section-line roads, such as 177th ST and 446th Ave, which connect these isolated prairie communities and historical sites.
