2017 Map of White SE

About this map

Coteau des Prairies, the vast highland plateau of the northern Great Plains, dominates this portion of Brookings County. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of Deer Cr in the north and the winding course of Medary Cr through the southern sections. This 2017 survey reveals a deeply established agricultural grid of section lines and range boundaries, including t110n r48w and t110n r47w. The transportation network is strictly rectilinear, following the Public Land Survey System with named thoroughfares such as 212th St and 481st Ave providing access to the high prairie. The map provides a clear look at the topographic relief of the coteau, where the land rises significantly above the surrounding plains, shaping the drainage patterns for the small creeks that traverse the township.
