2017 Map of Plainview Colony NW
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
Small rural cemeteries and numerous prairie potholes define this landscape in McPherson County, South Dakota. The presence of Leola Seventh Day Adventist Cem, the Rueb Cem, and the Congregational Cem suggests a history of localized settlement and family heritage tied to the land. The terrain is marked by a complex system of seasonal wetlands and small basins, including the larger Alkali Lake in the northeastern corner. Transportation through this section of the Plains is restricted to a tight grid of section lines like 350th Ave and 116th St, with Co Hwy 18 providing the primary east-west corridor in the southern reaches. This modern survey reflects the enduring agricultural layout and the vital water resources scattered across the high plains.
