2017 Map of Schoepp Flat

About this map

Schoepp Flat dominates the high prairie of Butte County, South Dakota, in this landscape shaped by ephemeral drainage and grazing land. The area is defined by a series of north-flowing waterways, including Willow Creek, Sand Creek, and Jug Creek, which carve subtle valleys through the open terrain. Human settlement is sparse, centered on the location of Falzerano in the southwest and connected by a network of rural routes like Old Twilight Road and Twilight Road. The presence of the North Lateral canal indicates the importance of water management in this high plains environment, supporting the isolated ranching life marked by family-named tracks such as Jaukkuri Lane and Paint Horse Lane. This survey provides a clear look at the township and range boundaries that organize this part of the West, showing the intersection of T10N and T11N.
