2016 Map of High Landing

About this map

High Landing and the neighboring settlement of River Valley anchor this portion of Pennington County, situated along the winding course of the Red Lake River. The landscape is defined by the transition from riparian corridors to precisely surveyed agricultural sections, reinforced by an extensive drainage system including County Ditch Number Thirty-nine A. This network of ditches and sections highlights the 21st-century efforts to manage the low-lying terrain for productive use. Local history is preserved at the Oak Park Cem near the southern boundary, while a grid of county roads like Co RD 91 and Co RD 6 facilitates movement through the rural townships. The map provides a clear view of the intersection between natural watercourses and the human-imposed geometry of the American Midwest.
