2021 Map of Lone Tree Draw East

About this map

Saint Anthony Cem stands as a focal point of local history along St Anthony's Rd, marking a small developed footprint in this expansive stretch of western South Dakota. The landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of Sand Cr, Second Sand Cr, and Hay Cr, which carve through the terrain near the prominent Lone Tree Draw. This 2021 survey reveals a section of the High Plains where the border between Harding and Butte Counties is crossed by a network of rural routes, including Old State Hwy 79 and Mason Rd. The map illustrates the persistent ranching and township structure of the region, showing how contemporary infrastructure like Sand Creek Rd follows the natural contours of the drainages that have long dictated movement across these grasslands.
