2017 Map of Mission Ridge

About this map

Mission Ridge and the nearby settlement of Orton anchor this central South Dakota landscape in Stanley County, situated within a complex drainage system that feeds toward the Missouri River. The terrain is defined by numerous seasonal watercourses, including Brush Cr, Mission Cr, and Camp Cr, which carve through the high plains toward the northeastern corner near Lake Oche. This 2017 survey details the local road network, showing how Mission Ridge Rd, Minneconjou Rd, and Fort Bennett Rd connect isolated homesteads and ranching tracts. For those tracing family ties to the area, the Mission Ridge Cem serves as a significant local landmark, while the prominent Whiteman Draw in the northwest provides a clear geographical reference for the regional topography.
