2017 Map of Kloucek Lake

About this map

Kloucek Lake serves as a central landmark in this portion of South Dakota, where the landscape is defined by the agricultural grid and the natural drainage of Prairie Cr and Beaver Cr. The area is notably punctuated by several rural cemeteries that provide a record of early settlement patterns, including Petersburg Cem, Worms Cem, and Ebenezer Cem. Located near the boundary of Bon Homme and Yankton counties, this territory is organized around a strictly rectilinear road network composed of corridors like 297th St and 300th St. The placement of Reform Cem and Pietz Cem across the township suggests the historical distribution of small local congregations and family plots that once anchored these prairie communities.
