2015 Map of Rockport Colony

About this map

The winding James River dictates the landscape of Beulah Township in this mid-2010s survey, carving a deep valley through the prairie of Hanson County. Rockport Colony sits on the western bluffs overlooking a sharp bend in the river, anchored by a network of sectional roads and the prominent Tuttle Rd. The terrain is defined by the intersection of water and agriculture, with smaller tributaries like Bloom Cr and Pierre Cr feeding into the main river valley. To the north, Hanson Lake serves as a distinct hydrological feature amidst the geometric grid of 260th through 268th Streets. This map provides a clear look at the contemporary land divisions and the enduring relationship between communal settlements and the natural river corridor that has shaped this region of South Dakota for generations.
