2012 Map of Sorum SW

About this map

Antelope Cr winds across this prairie landscape in southern Harding County, where the topography is defined by the ephemeral drainage systems of the northern Great Plains. The map captures a rural network of section-line roads and family-named routes, including Vernal Rd and Wells Rd, which serve the remote ranching properties of the region. Towards the southern portion of the sheet, Ash Cr and Sheep Cr provide the primary hydrologic features, cutting through the terrain alongside north-south connectors like Marty Rd and Zeona Rd. This 2012 survey illustrates the enduring agricultural and ranching layout of the area, where water sources like Antelope Cr remain the focal points for land use and habitation in a sparsely populated corner of South Dakota.
