2014 Map of Haley

About this map

Haley sits at the northern edge of this high plains landscape, positioned just above the meandering course of the North Fork Grand River. The geography is defined by a series of drainage systems that flow across the state boundary, including Lightning Cr in the north and both Lewis Cr and Teeter Cr to the south. This 2014 survey documents the remote borderlands where North Dakota and South Dakota meet, illustrating a territory organized by a rigid section-line road grid such as 132nd Ave SW and 101st St SW. The terrain south of the river becomes increasingly dissected by small draws and coulees, particularly around the Vessey Loop area, showing the transition from agricultural tablelands to the more complex topography of the river breaks.
