2021 Map of Princes Ranch

About this map

Princes Ranch stands as the primary landmark in this ranching region of Stanley County, where the topography is defined by the drainage patterns of the Missouri River plateau. The landscape is carved by deep incisions such as Government Draw and the seasonal flows of Willow Cr and Lance Cr. This 2021 survey illustrates a sparse settlement pattern characteristic of western South Dakota, where large land holdings are connected by a grid of rural section roads like Greenfield and 267th Ave. The map provides a precise look at the township and range boundaries, including t6n r27e and t5n r28e, which dictate the spatial organization of these expansive prairie reaches.
