2015 Map of Viewfield

About this map

Viewfield is situated in a high plains landscape where the northern edge of the Black Hills region transitions into the wide drainage basins of western South Dakota. This 2015 USGS survey documents the rural character of the area, defined largely by the intersection of the Meade and Pennington county boundary line. The terrain is marked by a series of draws and ridges that feed toward Curlew Lake in the northeastern corner of the quadrangle. The map details a network of section-line roads, including Curlew Road and Elk Creek Road, which serve as the primary infrastructure for the scattered homesteads and ranches that characterize this part of the state. The layout reflects the enduring influence of the Public Land Survey System, with township and range designations like t3n r10e and t2n r11e framing the geographic organization of these rural communities.
