2015 Map of Mitchell SW

About this map

Twelvemile Cr and its S Fork meander through this agricultural landscape in Davison County, defining the drainage patterns of the eastern South Dakota plains. The map reveals a strictly regulated section-line road network, where gravel routes like 264th St and 400th Ave serve a scattered collection of farmsteads. For local historians and genealogists, the survey identifies important communal sites such as the Church of God Cem and the Emsley Cem, which serve as quiet markers of the families who settled this prairie land. The terrain is characterized by subtle elevation changes and small depressions typical of the glacial till plains, with the creek beds providing the primary relief against the surrounding tilled fields.
