About this map

Zickrick and Dunkel define the topography of this Jones County landscape as it appeared in the early 1970s. The region is characterized by a network of drainage patterns, most notably the wide course of Williams Creek which dominates the central portion of the quadrangle. Other water features including Squaw Creek and Bull Creek segment the terrain, while the presence of a Flowing Well and the Spillway Elev 1797 suggest the management of water resources in this prairie environment. The map provides a distinct look at the rural section lines and land divisions of the era, documented just before the 1972 field check. This survey is particularly useful for those tracking land use and natural water features in south-central South Dakota, offering a clear record of the physical geography before modern agricultural or infrastructure shifts.
