2012 Map of Reliance SW

About this map

Red Butte rises as a prominent landmark in this segment of Tripp County, overlooking a landscape defined by the winding course of the White River. The river forms the southern boundary of the quadrangle, where the Nelson Ranch sits near the water’s edge. This 2012 survey illustrates the sparse, rural nature of the region, where a network of section-line roads like 321st Ave and 324th Ave navigate the drainages of Bad Cr and Red Butte Cr. For local historians and genealogists, the Trinity Cem stands as a focal point of the area's early settlement history. The map captures the vast grazing lands and the precise relationship between the rolling terrain and the intermittent stream beds that carve through the prairie.
