2017 Map of Sansarc

About this map

The community of Sansarc sits at the southern edge of this Stanley County landscape, centered near the intersection of Hayes Rd and 200th St. This area of central South Dakota is defined by the drainage basins of the Sansarc Cr and its upper reach, the N Fork Sansarc Cr, which carve through the plains. The presence of the Sansarc Cem near the townsite suggests the enduring location of local family heritage. The map details a strictly organized grid of sections and rural routes, including Sansarc Rd and Kirley Rd, that facilitate movement across this cattle-and-wheat country. To the west, the headwaters of Lone Tree Cr appear, marking the divide between small local watersheds in this section of the Great Plains.
