1978 Map of Alkali Creek West

About this map

The South Fork Moreau River meanders through the northern reaches of this landscape, marking a territory defined by intricate drainages and isolated landmarks. Situated along the boundary where Harding Co meets Butte Co, the terrain is characterized by long, winding waterways including Alkali Creek, Fourmile Creek, and Cady Creek. These seasonal flows have carved a complex network of draws and ridges across the High Plains, occasionally broken by prominent elevations such as Fourmile Butte and Little Butte. Evidence of resource exploration is sparse but present, noted by a lone Drill Hole located north of Alkali Creek. The map captures a moment in the late 1970s when this segment of South Dakota remained largely open range, with fine red dashed lines indicating the placement of selected fence lines and property boundaries across the cattle country.
