2021 Map of Meadow NE

About this map

Grand River National Grassland dominates this section of Perkins County, revealing a landscape defined by expansive public grazing lands and the winding course of the Grand River. In this part of South Dakota, the interplay between the river valley and the open range is evident in the drainage patterns of Cottonwood Cr, which cuts through the southern reaches of the township lines. The sparse road network, characterized by routes like Hudgins Rd, reflects the low-density ranching and conservation focus of the region. This 2021 update documents the boundary shifts and land management divisions within the Grand River NG, providing a clear look at the modern rural infrastructure in a territory where natural topography and federal land status dictate the pace of settlement.
