2021 Map of Peach Lake

About this map

Peach Lake serves as a central landmark in this remote corner of Dewey County, where the topography is defined by the winding drainages of the Missouri River plateau. The landscape is carved by several prominent watercourses, including Redwater Cr in the northeast and the extensive reach of Meadow Cr, which meanders across the southern and western sections of the quadrangle. The map reveals a sparse, rural road network typical of South Dakota's rangelands, with Co Hwy K and a series of county routes like Co Rd 3 providing the primary access through these townships. This survey illustrates the section-line organization of the Great Plains, where narrow corridors of Red Earth Cr and other tributaries dictate the placement of local infrastructure and land use within the larger grid system.
