2015 Map of Scott Creek

About this map

The Little Missouri River meanders through the eastern edge of this Harding County landscape, carving a distinct valley through the high plains of South Dakota. The drainage network is particularly dense here, with numerous seasonal watercourses including Scott Cr, Wagoneer Cr, and the aptly named Dipping Vat Cr feeding into the larger river system. These creeks are interrupted by prominent topographic landmarks such as Bleak Butte and Profile Butte, which serve as significant navigational waypoints in an otherwise open terrain.
