2012 Map of Hayti

About this map

Hayti serves as the focal point of this Hamlin County survey, which reveals the grid-like precision of the South Dakota prairie during the early 21st century. The landscape is defined by the expansive Lake Marsh, which dominates the southwestern portion of the quadrangle. As the terrain rises toward the east, it enters The Coteaus, a region of glacial hills that introduces subtle elevation changes to the otherwise flat agricultural plains. For those researching local heritage, the map provides precise locations for two notable burial grounds: Pleasant View Cem situated just east of the village center and West Norden Cem located further south. This edition emphasizes the structured county road network, dominated by numbered avenues and streets that facilitate the region's agricultural economy and connect the outlying farmsteads to the central hub of Hayti.
