2012 Map of Milltown

About this map

The James River snakes through this rural landscape in Hutchinson County, forming a central corridor for a network of prairie tributaries. This 2012 survey illustrates the organized township structure of the region, defined by a rigid grid of section roads including 420th Ave and 273rd St. The New Elm Springs Colony stands as a primary settlement in the northern portion of the map, while the Milltown Cem serves as a significant local landmark near the river's bend. The hydrology of the area is exceptionally detailed, tracing the winding paths of Twelvemile Cr, Pony Cr, and Plum Cr as they drain toward the James. This document preserves the modern rural infrastructure of South Dakota, from the county routes like Co Rd-11 to the smaller family and farm roads that link these isolated prairie homesteads.
