About this map

Cottonwood Lake dominates the northwestern portion of this South Dakota landscape, set against the glacial depressions and level plains of Edmunds County. The territory is defined by broad geographic regions including Glen, Glover, and Cloyd Valley, which characterize the open agricultural and pastoral stretches of the late 1970s. Industrial and transport infrastructure is represented by the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad, which cuts through the northern and central sections of the quadrangle. Small-scale resource extraction is visible through scattered Gravel Pits, serving the local infrastructure needs of this rural prairie region. The map reflects a period of established section lines and agricultural organization, following the township boundaries of T 123 N and T 122 N.
