2012 Map of Iron Shell Flat West

About this map

Iron Shell Flat characterizes the wide, open landscape of this 2012 survey, where the drainages of Cut Meat Cr, Coffee Cr, and Running Enemy Cr carve subtle pathways through the terrain. The geography is defined by a sparse network of section-line roads, including 292nd St and 244th Ave, reflecting the systematic grid of rural South Dakota. The presence of Saint Marys Cem near the eastern edge provides a localized point of historical and genealogical significance, serving as a landmark within this expansive area. He Dog Rd cuts across the northern section, connecting the remote flats with the broader regional road system. This map captures the modern footprint of a landscape that remains largely defined by its natural hydrology and the persistent layout of its rural infrastructure.
