2017 Map of Midland NW

About this map

The high plains of the South Dakota interior are defined by the convergence of the Haakon Co and Stanley Co boundaries in this 2017 survey. The landscape is dominated by a drainage network that feeds into the Mitchell Cr and Lone Tree Cr systems, illustrating the essential relationship between water and land use in this semi-arid region. A grid of section-line roads and named thoroughfares like Saddle Butte Rd and Dusty Ridge Rd provides the primary infrastructure for the ranching and agricultural operations scattered across the quadrangle.
