2015 Map of Virginia

About this map

Virginia serves as the primary point of reference in this section of Dewey County, where the landscape is defined by the intricate dendritic drainage of the Missouri River plateau. The settlement is situated near the upper reaches of Virgin Cr, which snakes southward through the center of the quadrangle. This 2015 survey illustrates the modern rural infrastructure of the region, anchored by county roads such as CR-14f and CR-14g. The topography is characterized by a network of breaks and draws feeding into watercourses like Left Hand Bear Cr in the northwest and Buffalo Cr to the northeast. While largely open rangeland today, the map preserves the legal framework of the Public Land Survey System, showing the township boundaries of t15n r29e and its neighbors which have governed land ownership in this part of South Dakota since the homesteading era.
