2021 Map of Okobojo

About this map

Sully Buttes rise above the Missouri River drainage in this high-plains landscape, where the agricultural grid meets the waters of the Lake Oahe reservoir. The small settlement of Okobojo sits near the confluence of Okobojo Creek and its namesake Lake Okobojo, reflecting a local geography shaped by both natural drainage and modern water management. This area of Sully County is defined by a strictly surveyed section line road network, including thoroughfares like Onida Rd and Okobojo Ave, which connect isolated homesteads to the river's edge. The map reveals the transition from the high, dry tablelands down into the intricate coulees and breaks that lead to the expansive shoreline of the reservoir. This detailed view captures the specific intersection of prairie land use and the development of water-focused access roads like Lakeside Dr and Finderosa Pl in the early 21st century.
