Coteau des Prairies defines the elevated landscape of this eastern South Dakota region, where the plateau surface is marked by the winding courses of Medary Cr and Deer Cr. In this mid-2010s survey, the rural character of Brookings County is evident through the organized communal settlements of Roland Colony in the northwest and Newdale Colony in the east. These locations, alongside a precise grid of section roads like 209th St and 484th Ave, illustrate the modern agricultural and social footprint of the area. The map provides a clear view of land divisions within several townships, including t110n r48w and t110n r47w, showing how the topography of the glacial coteau influences the drainage patterns and road placements across the prairie.
