About this map

The White River carves a deep, sinuous path through the landscape of the Jones Co Mellette Co border. This section of the Swift Bear Segment is characterized by the complex drainage systems of Cottonwood Cr and Yukon Cr, which feed into the main river channel from the surrounding uplands. The terrain is marked by significant topographical relief, where the water has etched distinct valleys into the South Dakota prairie.

Remote tracks and local thoroughfares provide the only access through this rural terrain, including River Trl, Buxcel Trl, and Roundup Rd. The map illustrates a landscape defined more by its natural hydrology and township boundaries, such as t3s r26e and t45n r30w, than by dense settlement. It offers a clear view of the land before further modern development, preserving the alignment of local crossings like 251st St.
