2021 Map of Pine Ridge SW

About this map

Tashunke - Ko - Ki - Pa - Pi Cem sits near the northern boundary of this Pine Ridge landscape, an area characterized by a complex drainage network feeding into White Clay Cr. The terrain is defined by the headwaters and drainages of Janis Cr, which winds through the southern and central portions of the quadrangle. Transportation across these Oglala Lakota County lands relies on a network of Bureau of Indian Affairs routes and named trails, including Slim Buttes Rd and Buffalo Pasture Rd. The presence of the Oglala Fire Trl suggests the management of this open country, where the land is divided into townships including t36n r46w and t35n r45w. Local historians can trace the connection between these rural road systems and the specific creek valleys that have long shaped movement through the region.
