2021 Map of Miller Dale Colony

About this map

Miller Dale Colony anchors the southwestern corner of this Hand County landscape, characterized by the winding drainage of Ree Cr. This portion of South Dakota is defined by its rigid section-line road network, including arterial routes like Co Rd 6 and Co Rd 26. The map captures the subtle topography where Campbell Gulch cuts through the plains, revealing the drainage patterns that influence local land use. While predominantly an open rural area, the presence of the colony suggests a distinct communal settlement pattern typical of the eastern South Dakota prairie during this modern era of agricultural management.
