2015 Map of Mouth of Little Dog Creek

About this map

The White River carves a winding path through this portion of South Dakota, serving as a natural boundary between Lyman, Mellette, and Tripp counties. This 2015 survey reveals a landscape defined by its watercourses and prominent topographic features, most notably the Pahapesto Buttes in the southeast. Smaller tributaries such as Little Dog Cr, Oak Cr, and Sedlano Cr drain the surrounding terrain, which is primarily navigated via a grid of rural routes including Pahapesto Buttes Rd and Pumpkin Rd. The map illustrates the convergence of multiple townships and ranges, where the intersection of Lyman, Mellette, and Tripp county lines underscores the complex administrative geography of this prairie region.
