2017 Map of Kranzburg SW

About this map

Coteau des Prairies, a prominent glacial upland, dominates the landscape of this 2017 study of eastern South Dakota. The map captures a rural agricultural section where the boundaries of Codington, Deuel, and Hamlin counties meet. The drainage of Stray Horse Creek meanders across the township lines, defining the local topography alongside a grid of section roads like 180th St and Co Rd 4. While much of the area is given to open land, the presence of the Christian Reformed church and an adjacent Cem (cemetery) in the southeastern corner serves as a central point for the local community history. This document provides a clear view of the section-line settlement patterns and hydrological features that have shaped the region since its surveying.
