2021 Map of Red Lake East

About this map

The expansive waters of Red Lake dominate the northern prairie of Brule County in this 2021 survey. This portion of South Dakota is defined by its rectilinear section lines and a drainage system that includes Nelson Cr and Reimer Cr, which cut through the undulating landscape toward the south. The agricultural character of the region is punctuated by long-standing community landmarks that serve as vital links for local genealogists. Lutheran Cem sits adjacent to the meandering course of Nelson Creek, while further south, Saint Procopius Church Cem remains a significant anchor for the rural township. Modern infrastructure is represented by Hwy 50 and a network of gravel section roads like 348th Ave, while the presence of Bonzow Dam indicates the managed water resources essential to this plains environment.
