About this map

Old Us Hwy 212 carves a straight horizontal path across the northern landscape of this Butte County region, marking the primary corridor through an area defined by its drainage systems. Several key waterways, including Eightmile Creek and Fourmile Creek, trend toward the southeast, illustrating the natural topography of the high plains. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the presence of the Willow Or Lateral indicates the specialized water management infrastructure necessary for agricultural life in this part of South Dakota. The map captures the vast township-and-range divisions, such as t9n r7e and t9n r8e, which have organized this territory since its initial survey.
