1974 Map of Bedashosha Lake

About this map

The Missouri River corridor in Buffalo and Brule Counties is dominated here by the expansive waters of Lake Francis Case, whose underwater contours were mapped using 1947 data from before the river's transformation. The landscape transitions from the river valley to the upland plains, crossing the Crow Creek Indian Reservation Boundary and the Lower Brule Indian Res Bdy. This mid-1970s survey captures the area's dual character as a sportsman's destination and a quiet rural community. Large conservation tracts like the Brule Bottom State Public Hunting Area and the Oacoma Kiowa State Public Hunting Area flank the water. Inland, the map records established community landmarks such as St Johns Ch and Apostolic Ch, along with the small settlement of Grosse, providing a detailed look at local genealogy and land use after the construction of the major Missouri River dams.
