2017 Map of Mail Shack Creek

About this map

The Missouri River and the expansive waters of Lake Oahe dominate this landscape along the border of Stanley and Sully counties. This modern topographic study reveals the winding shoreline of the Missouri as it transitions into the reservoir system, fed by local tributaries such as Mail Shack Creek and Sully Creek. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, notably at Sully Buttes and the ravine of Bakers Gulch. While the area remains primarily open land, a network of rural roads such as Little Bend Drive and Pike Haven Place provides access to the waterfront, reflecting the contemporary balance of agricultural use and recreational proximity to the lake.
