2015 Map of Letcher

About this map

Letcher serves as the primary hub of this eastern South Dakota prairie landscape, situated near the shores of Letcher Lake. The town layout is defined by its relation to the rail corridor along N Railway St, with a street grid including E Main St and W Main St branching out toward the agricultural surroundings. Further west, the map identifies the small community of Cuthbert, illustrating the sparse but deliberate settlement pattern typical of Sanborn County. The topography is marked by glacial features, with intermittent drainage systems like Dry Run winding through the sections. Local history and genealogy interest is concentrated near the town's southern edge at West Lawn Cem, while the surrounding sections are neatly divided by a dense network of township roads, such as 400th Ave and 239th St, reflecting the persistent influence of the Public Land Survey System.
