2015 Map of Whiteman Ranch

About this map

Whiteman Ranch stands as the central namesake of this high plains landscape on the border of Haakon and Stanley Counties. The terrain is defined by a dendritic drainage network, with the headwaters of Hermaphrodite Cr and Lone Tree Cr carving subtle coulees through the prairie. In the southeastern corner, the landscape descends toward the valley of Sansarc Cr, joined by its northern tributary, N Fork Sansarc Cr. The mapping reflects a sparse, rural infrastructure typical of the western South Dakota ranchlands, where transportation is dictated by a strict section-line grid of gravel roads and trails. Key arterial routes such as Kirley Rd and Sansarc Rd connect these isolated operations, providing the primary links between the sprawling sections of T7N and T8N.
