2021 Map of White Owl

About this map

White Owl serves as the primary focal point of this Meade County landscape, where the high plains are carved by an intricate network of drainage systems. The terrain is defined by the headwaters and branches of several significant creek systems, most notably White Owl Cr and its associated White Owl Lake. To the south, the geography transitions into the complex erosional patterns of E Badlands Cr, Middle Badlands Cr, and W Badlands Cr. This 2021 survey illustrates a sparsely settled ranching region where historical continuity is anchored by the White Owl Cem. A grid of local roads, including Lange Rd and Howie Rd, connects isolated homesteads across the sections, reflecting the enduring township and range organization of the Dakotas.
