1983 Map of Bentley Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Grandfield defines the high upland character of this South Dakota landscape, where the Haakon Co and Stanley Co boundary divides a series of family-held ranchlands. Compiled from 1974 photography and field-checked in the late 1970s, the map reveals a sparsely populated agricultural region centered on water sources like Hermaphrodite Creek and Plum Creek. The distribution of named holdings, such as the Bentley Ranch, Fosheim Brothers Ranch, and Schanzenbach Ranch, illustrates the persistence of large-scale cattle operations in this part of the state. Of particular interest to local historians is the Historical Marker situated in the northeast, alongside the Olesen Ranch, indicating a site of earlier regional significance preserved amidst the sprawling pastures.
