2020 Map of Haley

About this map

Haley sits near the winding course of the North Fork Grand River in this remote borderland between North Dakota and South Dakota. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of Lightning Cr and several unnamed coulees that cut through the high plains. A small, concentrated settlement pattern is evident at Haley, while the surrounding sections are sparsely populated, tied together by a grid of rural routes such as 99th St SW and Twin Twp Rd. For genealogists, the Haley Catholic Cem serves as a significant landmark of the local community's heritage in the early 21st century. The topography reveals the characteristic plateau and valley structures of the northern plains, illustrating how the river valley provides a natural focal point for habitation in an otherwise open, arid environment.
