2017 Map of Lodgepole SE

About this map

Grand River National Grassland dominates this corner of Perkins County, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of the North Fork Grand River. This 2017 study illustrates the vast, open character of northwestern South Dakota, where the topography is shaped by the river valley and its various tributaries. Remote section lines and gravel paths like Castlebutte Rd and 111th St provide the only terrestrial markers across this protected prairie. In the southern portion of the map, Lodgepole Cr cuts through the terrain, further emphasizing the importance of water resources in this semi-arid region. The mapping reflects the contemporary administrative boundaries of the Grng, showcasing the modern balance of public land management and the historic survey grid.
