2021 Map of Midland NE

About this map

Big Prairie Dog Cr and Little Prairie Dog Cr define the drainage patterns of this central South Dakota landscape, where the prairie is carved by seasonal watercourses. This area represents a tri-county junction where Stanley, Haakon, and Jones counties meet along a surveyed boundary line. The terrain is structured by a regular grid of section lines and local roads like 218th St and 252nd Ave, reflecting the enduring Public Land Survey System. Modern infrastructure is represented by the Bad River Rd in the northeast, which provides access through this sparsely populated ranching country. The map illustrates a classic Great Plains layout where vast open spaces are organized by precise geographic coordinates and the winding paths of intermittent creeks.
