1955 Map of Argyle

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Argyle and its surrounding ranch lands appear in this mid-century topographic record of Custer County, South Dakota. Located within the Black Hills National Forest, the landscape is defined by the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad line, which runs north-south through the eastern half of the map. The settlement pattern is characterized by several distinct family holdings including Dean Ranch, Carter Ranch, and Nicolls Ranch, reflecting the agricultural and ranching heritage of the Black Hills. Education and industry are represented by the Argyle Sch and a Gravel Pit near the railroad. Notable water features and drainage systems, such as Red Canyon, Pleasant Valley Creek, and Quincy Carroll Creek, illustrate the complex hydrology of this high-elevation terrain during the 1950s.
