2015 Map of Still Lake

About this map

Coteau des Prairies defines the rolling topography of this Codington County landscape, where glacial features have created a network of prairie lakes and streams. The Big Sioux River meanders through the eastern sections, joined by tributaries like Soo Cr and Mahoney Cr. Settled areas are anchored by several historic burial grounds, including the Saint Maurice Esterly Blessed Sacrament Catholic Cem and Esterly Cem, marking the spiritual and communal centers for the local farming families. The land is organized by a strict grid of section roads, with Still Lake and Cottonwood Lake serving as prominent water bodies in an area largely dedicated to agriculture. This survey provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure, from county routes like CR-17 to the quiet placement of the Berger Cem amidst the fields.
