2012 Map of White River NE

About this map

The White River winds through the northern portion of this Mellette County landscape, defining the local drainage patterns and topography. The terrain is marked by the extensive network of Kaiser Cr, which flows northward across the section, fed by numerous unnamed seasonal tributaries. This area of South Dakota exhibits a sparse, rural infrastructure characteristic of the Great Plains, where the land is primarily organized by a rectilinear grid of local roads and section lines. The map reveals the relationship between these early 21st-century transit routes and the natural breaks in the land created by the winding path of Kaiser Cr, providing a clear view of the hydrological features that dominate the Swift Bear Segment.
