2017 Map of Ideal

About this map

Ideal serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Tripp County, where the grid of rural roads meets the winding paths of local waterways. The community is anchored by the Holy Spirit Cem, a significant landmark for those tracing local family histories in this part of South Dakota. The drainage patterns are defined by the presence of Dog Ear Cr and Owl Cr, which cut through the sectional divisions of the Public Land Survey System. A network of local corridors, including Co Rd 6140 and 311th Ave, provides access to the surrounding farmsteads and fields. This map illustrates the intersection of several townships, including t101n r76w and t102n r76w, showing the methodical organization of the plains during the early 21st century.
