2015 Map of Horse Creek

About this map

Eagle Nest Butte stands as a prominent landmark within this landscape on the border of Jackson and Bennett counties. The drainage network is characterized by several named watercourses including the wide-stretching Eagle Nest Cr and the descriptively named Bear-in-the-Lodge Cr, which flow through the undulating terrain. To the south, Horse Cr meanders across the plains near the county line, while the northern reaches are defined by Craven Cr and Settin Up Cr. Transport through this sparsely populated ranching and agricultural region is primarily facilitated by Hisle Rd and 275th St, reflecting the grid-based land management of the Great Plains. This 2015 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey provides a precise view of the geographic intersections and water systems that define this part of South Dakota.
