About this map

The Heart River meanders sharply across the northern reaches of this Stark and Hettinger County landscape, its course marked by a narrow green riparian corridor that cuts through the surrounding prairie. This area, surveyed for the Department of the Interior's Missouri River Basin development program, reveals a rural landscape defined by drainage patterns and topographic relief. Central to the local community is St Stephens Ch, positioned on a high point between the river valley and the southern uplands. To the south, the terrain rises into the Lime Hills and the Campbell Highland, where the elevation provides a distinct contrast to the lower creek beds of Plum Creek and Buffalo Creek. The presence of several Gravel Pit sites suggests the local importance of aggregate extraction for road building in this sparsely settled region.
