2017 Map of Rattlesnake Butte East
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
The Tripp and Gregory County line divides this prairie landscape, where the drainage of Bull Cr and its tributary W Br Bull Cr carve across the plains. Elevation is defined by prominent rises like Rattlesnake Butte and the Buffalo Buttes to the east, landmarks that provided essential orientation in a region of vast grazing lands and section-line roads. This rural South Dakota interior is anchored by two spiritual and genealogical sites, Our Savior Cem and the Miniska Presbyterian Cem, which stand as markers of the community’s Presbyterian and Lutheran heritage. Apart from S Dakota Highway 49 in the south, the area is navigated by a strict grid of gravel roads and avenues, such as 333 Ave and 277th St, reflecting the systematic settlement patterns of the Great Plains.
