2017 Map of Wall NE

About this map

Quinn anchors the northwest corner of this West River landscape, where the prairie begins to transition toward the more complex topography of the Badlands. The town is flanked by Mount Hope Cem and the prominent Quinn Butte, serving as a gateway to the southern expanse of the Buffalo Gap National Grassland. This 2017 survey reveals a network of section-line roads and named routes like Big Foot Pass Rd and Big Foote Rd that traverse the high plains. A series of intermittent drainages, including Cottonwood Cr, Whitewater Cr, and Big Foot Cr, carve the terrain around landmarks like Street Hill. The map meticulously documents the transition from Pennington County into Jackson County, illustrating the vast open grazing lands and sparse settlement characteristic of this part of South Dakota.
