2012 Map of South of Volunteer

About this map

Bear Butte Cr meanders across the northern reaches of this Meade County landscape, defining the drainage patterns of a largely open prairie. The area is characterized by a sparse network of county roads and section-line paths, reflecting the vast ranching and agricultural heritage of the South Dakota plains. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, Alkali Cr flows through the terrain, paralleled in places by Alkali Rd. The transportation network is anchored by several rural thoroughfares, including Co Hwy Mc-7a and Co Hwy Mc-13a, which facilitate movement between scattered homesteads. Named tracks like Hamlet Pl and 202nd St intersect the landscape, highlighting the grid-based land division and the essential connection between these remote locations and the wider region.
