About this map

Glacial depressions and prairie potholes dominate this McPherson County landscape, which is organized by a strict grid of section lines and gravel roads. Settlement patterns in this portion of South Dakota reflect the importance of local community congregations, evidenced by the presence of the Lutheran Cem in the northeast and the Congregational Cem near the center of the sheet. The terrain is marked by hundreds of small, unnamed wetlands and water bodies that sit between the intersecting paths of 114th St and 347th Ave. Major local thoroughfares such as Cr-12 and 118th St provide the primary east-west transit through this rural agricultural region, while north-south corridors like 342nd Ave connect the scattered farmsteads.
