2021 Map of Kenel

About this map

Kenel sits on the western bluffs overlooking the wide expanse of the Missouri River, where the landscape transitions into the waters of Lake Oahe. This area of Corson County is characterized by its deep coulees and drainages like Blackhawk Cr and Mad Bear Cr, which carve through the high plains toward the river valley. The community structure is anchored by religious and memorial sites, most notably the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Cem and the smaller Saint Lukes Cem and Saint Thomas Cem. The road network remains sparse, with routes like 1st Ave, 2nd Ave, and 108 TH providing the primary access through the undulating terrain near the Standing Rock Reservation border.
