2015 Map of Wolf Creek

About this map

Wolf Creek serves as a central hub for this portion of Hutchinson County, where the eponymous Wolf Creek stream winds through the landscape before joining the James River. The geography is defined by a meticulous section-line road grid, including Colony Rd and County Road 13, which organize the agrarian territory. In the southwest corner, Lake Menno provides a significant water feature, accessed by Lake Menno Rd. The map documents local heritage through the presence of Walz Cem and Huber Cem, which are positioned near the intermittent drainage of Furlong Cr. These small cemeteries and the established colony at Wolf Creek reflect the long-standing communal and family-based settlement patterns characteristic of the South Dakota plains during this era.
