2017 Map of Mud Creek

About this map

Mud Butte serves as the primary landmark in this ranching landscape where Meade, Butte, and Perkins Counties converge. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the S Fork Moreau River, which draws in a network of drainage systems including Mud Cr, Hay Cr, and Trail Cr. This 2017 survey reveals a remote section of South Dakota characterized by wide-open land divisions and sparse infrastructure, where travel is dictated by routes like Zeona Rd. The convergence of multiple county lines, including the boundary between Butte and Meade counties, highlights the administrative importance of this rural intersection. Small seasonal waterways such as Camper Cr and Beverly Cr illustrate the local topography, which remains largely dominated by natural features and large-scale township grids rather than dense settlement.
