2021 Map of Hayes North

About this map

The remote plains of t5n r26e and surrounding townships are defined by a network of drainage basins and isolated infrastructure in Stanley County. The ephemeral flows of Wagonhound Creek and Frozen Man Cr wind through the landscape, dictating the placement of rural section lines and local roads like N Brown Church Rd and Hayes Rd. A notable aviation landmark, the Hayes Emergency Airstrip, sits in the southeast corner of the map, serving as a critical navigation point for pilots navigating the expansive South Dakota interior. This survey illustrates the persistent agricultural and ranching grid that organizes the territory, where section corners and sparse gravel routes represent the primary human imprint on the terrain.
