About this map

Badlands National Park dominates the southern half of this South Dakota landscape, characterized by the intricate, erosion-carved topography typical of the region. The northern section transitions into a more riparian environment shaped by the meandering course of the White River, which is fed by several local drainages including Clifford Cr, Wind Cr, and Palmer Cr. The orientation of the land is defined by these watercourses as they cut through the high plains. In the northeast, Medicine Root Cr and Pass Creek converge toward the river valley, while River Rd provides one of the few named transportation corridors through the terrain. This map captures the stark boundary between the protected parklands and the surrounding township and range sections of Shannon County, revealing how natural hydrology dictates the movement and layout of the high prairie.
