2015 Map of Northville SW

About this map

South Fork Snake Creek meanders through this portion of the northern plains, creating a distinctive drainage pattern across the township grid. The landscape is defined by the jurisdictional boundary between Faulk Co and Spink Co, which runs north-south through the center of the survey. A rigid network of section lines and rural roads, including 157th St and 374th Ave, segments the terrain into the classic Jeffersonian grid. The topography is marked by numerous small depressions and basins characteristic of the region's glacial history, which collect water near the S Fork Snake Cr during wet seasons. This map provides a clear view of the agricultural organization of South Dakota at the start of the 21st century, showing how property lines and local infrastructure respect the natural flow of the local creek system.
