2017 Map of Table Top Butte

About this map

Table Top Butte rises above the open high plains of western South Dakota, anchoring a landscape where the Butte Co Meade Co line divides the rolling ranchlands. The area's hydrology is defined by the ephemeral winding of S Sulphur Cr in the north and Soft Water Cr to the south. This terrain is marked by distinct geological formations, including the prominent Saddle Butte and Rattlesnake Butte, which serve as natural landmarks across the vast open country. Human presence is etched into the landscape via remote thoroughfares like Old Us Hwy 212 and the descriptive Gumbo Ln, reflecting a rural South Dakota geography where transportation routes follow the natural contours of the buttes and creek beds.
