2012 Map of Hamill SE

About this map

Bull Creek dominates the hydrology of this South Dakota landscape, its winding course and associated tributaries carving a complex network of drainage across the prairie. The western portion of the quadrangle is defined by the straighter path of Black Dog Creek, which flows northward through an area marked by a sparse, grid-based road network typical of the Great Plains. A section of 264th St provides the primary east-west corridor in the southern reaches of the map. This 2012 survey illustrates the enduring rural character of the region, where the terrain is largely shaped by natural watercourses rather than dense human settlement, preserving the original land divisions and seasonal stream beds of the northern plains.
