2017 Map of Miller Hill

About this map

The northwest edge of Winner anchors this 2017 study of the rural Tripp County landscape. This survey documents the transition from the city's residential streets, such as Dreyer Ave, into the surrounding agricultural sections. The terrain is defined by the elevation of Miller Hill in the northeast, while the drainage of the northern plains is captured through several seasonal waterways. Tributaries including Dog Ear Cr, Hollow Cr, and Owl Cr wind through the township sections, tracing the natural contours of the land. A precise grid of section-line roads, including 277th St and 314th Ave, provides a framework for the township and range boundaries of t100n r77w and t99n r76w. The map preserves the spatial relationship between the expanding footprint of the county seat and the enduring prairie drainages that shaped early settlement in South Dakota.
