The prairie landscape of Meade and Pennington counties is defined by the ephemeral flow of Elk Cr and the deeply etched contours of Hay Draw. This 2021 survey of the rural landscape north of Owanka reveals a sparse network of section roads and grazing lands, anchored by the Lakeside Cem near the intersection of Co Hwy Mc-29 and Vanderheld Rd. The map illustrates the geometric precision of the Public Land Survey System, with township boundaries like t3n r12e and t3n r13e carving the terrain into a predictable grid.
