2012 Map of Haydraw

About this map

Haydraw is situated in a rural expanse of Meade County, defined by a sparse network of section roads and seasonal watercourses. The drainage patterns of Hay Cr, E Elm Cr, and W Bull Cr carve through the landscape, illustrating the hydrology of this western South Dakota prairie. For those researching local history or genealogy, the Haydraw Cem serves as a significant landmark north of the primary settlement cluster. The road system, including Co Hwy Mc-27 and Hay Draw Rd, follows the rigid grid typical of the Great Plains, connecting remote homesteads and ranching properties. This map captures the area in the early 21st century, showing how modern transportation routes like 167th Ave and Oxbow Pl overlay the traditional agrarian territory.
