2017 Map of Monango SW

About this map

Elm River meanders south through this Dickey County landscape, shaping a terrain defined by subtle drainage patterns like Bristol Gulch. The map reveals a highly structured grid of section lines and rural roads, such as 90th St SE and 97th St SE, which delineate the agricultural reaches of South Dakota’s northern neighbor. Toward the southern end of the quadrangle, Pheasant Lake provides a notable water feature amidst the prairie. A key site for genealogists and local historians is the Christ Lutheran Cem, which stands as a quiet marker of the community's spiritual and social history. The sparse distribution of named features reflects the open, agrarian character of this region during the early 21st century, where land use remains closely tied to the original Public Land Survey System township boundaries.
