2015 Map of Wewela

About this map

The Keya Paha River winds through this section of Tripp County, shaping a landscape of drainages and notable elevations like Turtle Butte. Near the northern border, the Congregational Cem serves as a significant genealogical marker for the rural community, situated along the section lines defined by 296th St. The small settlement of Wewela is located in the southern portion of the map at the junction of 319th Ave and local routes, reflecting the dispersed residential patterns typical of South Dakota's prairie borderlands. Water resources, including Rahn Lake and Timber Cr, are vital landmarks in this agricultural region, where the grid of county roads like Musilek Ave and Richey Rd provides the primary infrastructure for the area's ranching and farming operations.
