About this map

Badlands National Park and Buffalo Gap National Grassland meet in this 2015 study of Pennington County. The terrain is defined by the sharp transition from the elevated Pinnacles down through Dillon Pass into the expansive Conata Basin. This geographic shift is marked by the erosion-carved landscape typical of the region, where seasonal watercourses like Sage Cr and Kimball Cr drain the high ground.

Rural infrastructure is concentrated along unpaved routes such as Sagecreek Rim Rd and Huether Rd, providing access to the remote interior. The Conata E 302 Reservoir stands as a notable water management feature in the southern portion of the quadrangle, supporting land use within the national grassland. The map preserves the township and range system, including t2s r16e, which frames the intersection of conservation lands and open range.
