2012 Map of Two Lance Lake

About this map

Little White River meanders across the northern portion of this landscape, carving a drainage system that includes the aptly named Stinking Water Cr. This 2012 survey illustrates the sparse, high-plains settlement pattern of Oglala Lakota County, where vast distances separate individual landmarks. Human presence is concentrated at the Kocer Ranch and the isolated Knight Cem near the river bluffs. To the south, the terrain is characterized by numerous basins and water bodies, most notably the expansive Alkali Lake and its smaller counterparts like Two Lance Lake, Ross Lake, and Posey Lake. The map reveals a minimal road network, primarily consisting of numbered routes like 296th St and named arteries such as Ash St, reflecting the remote nature of this prairie environment.
