2017 Map of Redowl

About this map

Redowl serves as the central point of this West River landscape, situated among the drainage basins of several significant local waterways. The topography is defined by the winding paths of Red Owl Cr and Elm Cr, which cut through the high plains terrain. Local history is anchored by the presence of the Pleasant View Red Owl Cem and the Pleasant Valley Cem, providing essential markers for genealogists and researchers tracking family roots in Meade County. The road network, including Co HWY MC-26 and Red Owl Rd, follows the section lines of the Public Land Survey System, illustrating the orderly division of the South Dakota prairie. The map captures the interface between the upper reaches of Indian Cr and Spring Cr, reflecting the vital role of water distribution in this ranching country.
