2015 Map of No Heart Creek

About this map

Lake Oahe defines the southern boundary of this landscape in Dewey County, where the Missouri River reservoir meets the winding drainage networks of the northern plains. The terrain is characterized by a series of significant watercourses, including No Heart Cr and the descriptively named Tall Prairie Chicken Cr, which carve through the topography toward the lake. A prominent landmark, No Heart Butte, rises between these creek beds, serving as a distinct navigational point in an otherwise open expanse. Transportation through the area is primarily facilitated by Bia-8, which bisects the quadrangle. Other minor waterways like Little Willow Cr, Corral Cr, and Charlie Cr reveal the intricate natural irrigation and erosion patterns typical of this Missouri River breaks region.
