2015 Map of Platte Lake

About this map

Platte Lake and the smaller Lake Sixteen characterize this prairie landscape along the border of Brule and Aurora Counties. The terrain is defined by a dense grid of section roads and avenues, including 366th Ave and 252nd St, which partition the land into the systematic townships of t103n r67w and t103n r66w. Interstate 90 cuts across the northern portion of the quadrangle, serving as the primary modern transit corridor through this agricultural region. Hydrological features such as Platte Cr and Platte Creek drain the low-lying areas between the numerous glacial depressions and wetlands that dot the township. This survey provides a precise look at the rural South Dakota infrastructure and water resources as they existed in the mid-2010s.
