2021 Map of Howard NE

About this map

Coteau des Prairies, a vast glacial upland, defines the topography of this eastern South Dakota landscape. The map is centered on the border of Kingsbury and Miner counties, showing a region shaped by agricultural geometry and subtle watercourses. The W Fork Vermillion River meanders southward through the center of the sheet, while Rock Cr cuts across the northwest corner. This area is characterized by the Cloverleaf Colony, a distinctive communal settlement accompanied by the Cloverleaf Colony Cem. Aviation history is represented by Lee Airport, located in the western portion of the quadrangle. The grid of section lines and rural roads, including 433rd Ave and 220th St, provides a clear view of the land division and transportation network established in this part of the state.
