About this map

No Heart and several family-run ranching operations define this Dewey County landscape, which sits entirely within the Cheyenne River Indian Reservation. Mapped from 1974 aerial photography, the terrain is shaped by an intricate network of drainages, most notably the meandering Virgin Creek which snakes north through the center of the sheet. The settlement pattern is sparse, tied closely to water sources like Lee Dam and the various branches of the creek system. To the south, the headwaters of No Heart Creek and the confluence of the East Branch and West Branch Willow Creek illustrate the hydrologic structure of the plains. Named landmarks like Agnew Ranch and H Triangle Ranch provide specific points of interest for those tracing local land use and genealogical ties in this portion of South Dakota during the early 1980s.
