2012 Map of South Scalp Creek

About this map

Lake Francis Case dominates the northeastern corner of this South Dakota landscape, where the waters of the Missouri River have transformed the surrounding geography. The drainage network is defined by numerous seasonal and perennial flows, including the prominent branches of S Scalp Cr and N Scalp Cr, which meander toward the reservoir. In the southern reaches of Gregory County, the Bethelhem Cem stands as a focal point for local genealogy, situated near the intersection of the regional road network. The map reveals a systematic grid of section roads and thoroughfares like Co Hwy-1 and Lindley Twp Hwy, illustrating the agricultural layout of the plains. This 2012 survey captures the modern rural configuration of the area, where watercourses like Tobacco Cr and Joe Days Cr carve through the prairie towards the larger Missouri River system.
