2015 Map of Milesville

About this map

Milesville and Billsburg anchor this segment of the Haakon County high plains, where the open landscape is defined by the drainage of Harding Cr and Straighthead Cr. This 2015 topography shows a rural landscape meticulously organized by the Public Land Survey System, with gravel roads like Milesville Rd and Kings School Rd following section lines across the broad Milesville Flat. For genealogists and local historians, the map identifies specific points of historical continuity, including the Milesville Cem and the Topbar Cem further south. The drainage patterns of E Fork Spotted Bear Cr in the west contrast with the more level grazing lands to the east, illustrating the subtle but essential water resources that have shaped ranching and settlement in this part of South Dakota for generations.
