About this map

Middle Cr and Brushy Cr wind through this section of the South Dakota prairie, where the local water management is anchored by the Reed Dam. The landscape is defined by a dendritic network of drainages including Johnny Cr, Stony Butte Cr, and W Middle Cr, which flow toward the southern edge of the quadrangle near Cherry Cr. This 2015 survey reveals a sparse, rural infrastructure of section-line roads and named tracks that serve the sprawling ranch lands of Meade County.

Transportation through this open country relies on routes such as Brushie Creek Rd and Cherry Creek Rd, while smaller tracks like Winter Rd and Jordan Pl provide access to remote interior sections. The presence of United School Rd suggests the historical locations of rural education centers that once served this isolated community. The map provides a precise look at the township and range divisions, showing the intersection of T11N, T10N, and T9N across R15E and R16E.
