2012 Map of Martin SW

About this map

Lake Cr meanders across this rural section of Bennett County, defining the drainage patterns of a landscape marked by a strict section-line road grid. The geography here is predominantly open, with scattered water features like Cedar Cr in the southeastern corner. This 2012 survey illustrates the modern layout of rural infrastructure, where local travel relies on a network of numbered avenues and named roads such as Vireo Rd and Robin Rd. The map is characterized by its sparse development, typical of the High Plains, where human presence is mostly indicated by the intersections of routes like 296th St and 221st Ave. It provides a clear view of how land management and transportation are organized in this part of South Dakota, well away from major urban centers.
