About this map

Silver Lake and Mud Lake define the prairie landscape of Brule County in this 2017 survey of the plains. This section of Smith Township is organized by a precise grid of rural section-line roads, such as 244th St and 357th Ave, which partition the agricultural land into traditional rectangular plots. The terrain is marked by numerous small wetlands and depressions typical of the Missouri Plateau region, showing the drainage patterns that feed into these larger named water bodies. While predominantly agricultural, the map illustrates the enduring structure of the Public Land Survey System through its township and range boundaries, including the intersection of t104n r69w and t104n r68w, providing a clear record of land division in south-central South Dakota.
