2015 Map of Mobridge NW

About this map

Lake Oahe dominates the southeastern portion of this map, representing the flooded valley of the Missouri River as it passes between Corson Co and Campbell Co. The landscape is defined by the dramatic dissection of the Missouri Plateau, where intermittent drainage systems like Leavenworth Cr and Fisher Cr have carved deep coulees into the prairie. In the south, the sheltered Mooquit Valley sits adjacent to the reservoir's edge, illustrating the complex shoreline created by the inundation of the river valley. The region is sparsely populated, with movement dictated by a grid of rural roads such as 120th St and 281st Ave. This survey captures the topographical contrast between the high tablelands and the submerged river bottom, a defining characteristic of the modern Dakotas.
