2015 Map of Parade

About this map

The small settlement of Parade sits along a prominent east-west highway corridor in Dewey County, serving as a focal point for this expansive prairie landscape. This 2015 survey documents the drainage patterns of the northern Great Plains, where Goose Cr and Hosupa Cr meander through open terrain punctuated by modest water management infrastructure like the Goose Cr Dam. The mapping of township and range lines, such as t13n r25e and t12n r25e, provides a clear view of the section-line road system that defines local navigation. Significant county routes including CR-17 and CR-16 link the remote homesteads and ranching tracts, illustrating the enduring agricultural grid and the sparse distribution of human settlement in this portion of South Dakota.
