USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
Aberdeen serves as the regional hub for the northeastern South Dakota plains, situated amidst a landscape of numerous lakes and small prairie potholes. This mid-century survey reveals a highly developed rail network that supported the local agricultural economy, including the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific Railroad and the Chicago and North Western Railway crossing the county. To the east, the Sand Lake National Wildlife Refuge and Dakota Lake Wildlife Refuge follow the course of the James River, highlighting early conservation efforts in the Central Flyway.
