2012 Map of Table Mountain

About this map

Table Mountain and Dead Horse Butte anchor this high-plains landscape in Harding County, where the drainage network of Lone Tree Cr defines the local topography. This 2012 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the isolated settlement of Karinen at the junction of several county routes, illustrating the sparse but vital transport infrastructure of northwest South Dakota. The land is marked by numerous named creek beds including Sevenmile Cr, Fivemile Cr, and Crooked Cr, which underscore the importance of water management and natural drainage in this arid environment. Elevation features like Cooper Hill rise above the surrounding terrain, providing landmarks for local navigation. The presence of Oil Well Rd points toward the regional energy industry, while the local road network consisting of Co Hwy-798 and Co Hwy-733 connects these remote points of interest.
