2012 Map of Quinn Table SW

About this map

Seventyone Table rises as a prominent landform in this portion of Pennington County, defining the high ground between numerous drainage systems. The landscape is characterized by a network of seasonal watercourses, including Beaver Cr and Bear Cr, which carve through the plains. The presence of S Fork Sage Cr and Dry Cr further illustrates the complex erosion patterns typical of the region's topography. Transportation in this area in 2012 relied on a sparse network of thoroughfares, most notably Sage Creek Rd and Bear Creek Rd, which provide access to the expansive open ranges and high tablelands. This USGS survey provides a detailed look at the rural South Dakota terrain, capturing the relationship between the flat summits and the dendritic stream networks that define the local geography.
