About this map

The Missouri River corridor dominates this 2015 landscape, marking the convergence of Corson, Dewey, and Walworth counties. This reach of the river is characterized by the expansive waters of Lake Oahe, where the rising reservoir levels have reshaped the historical drainage patterns of smaller tributaries like Le Compte Cr and Little Bear Cr.

Remote roads such as River View Rd and Walth Bay Rd provide access to the rugged bluffs and shoreline of the reservoir. The cartography reveals a stark contrast between the wide, flooded river valley and the intricate topographic relief of the surrounding plains. Researchers interested in the mid-20th-century transformation of the northern Missouri River will find this map essential for understanding the contemporary geography of these tribal and ranching lands.
