How to Use This Cherry Creek, South Dakota Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cherry Creek, South Dakota. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of South Dakota or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Cherry Creek.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Cherry Creek cuts a persistent, winding path through the vast, sun-bleached expanse of the South Dakota prairie. It lies 59.0 miles west-northwest of Pierre, SD (from Pierre, SD: bearing 287°T), and is situated 58.2 miles west-northwest of Fort Pierre. The land here slopes toward the horizon in long, rhythmic folds of earth, where the golden grasses shiver under the weight of an immense, open sky. To the west, the solitary silhouette of Stony Butte rises from the plains, a silent sentinel watching over the quiet passage of the water. Just beyond the immediate reach of the bank, the landscape deepens into the rugged, shadowed creases of Eagle Chasing Draw, where the wind carries the dry, earthen scent of sage and exposed stone. As the light wanes, the shadows stretch across the terrain, turning the pale prairie into a textured tapestry of amber and deep violet, grounding the traveler in the sheer, unadorned scale of the Great Plains.

History lingers in the quietude of Cherry Creek, echoing the endurance of those who first settled this expansive range to work the soil and tend to the cattle that define the regional economy. Life moves in alignment with the seasonal shifts of the prairie, a rhythm dictated by the demands of ranching and the slow, deliberate pace of rural labor. While the silence of the plains dominates, the proximity to the expansive waters of Lake Oahe provides a rare, wide-reaching horizon, and the nearby presence of Rattlesnake Lake offers a small, still reflection of the clouds above. The community maintains a character forged by isolation and mutual reliance, a place where the social fabric is stitched together by the shared experience of the elements. It is a land that demands patience, rewarding those who stay with the profound, steady stillness that only such an ancient and open country can provide.

About This Cherry Creek Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cherry Creek, South Dakota. Coordinates: 44.60554, -101.49987. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Cherry Creek includes the ZIP code (57622), telephone area code (605), county seat of Ziebach County (Dupree), and school district assignment (Dupree School District 64-2).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
