1954 Map of Big Stone Lake

About this map

Big Stone Lake carves through the landscape along the border of South Dakota and Minnesota, serving as the focal point for this mid-century survey. Along its western banks, Hartford Beach State Park and Lake Wilcox offer a look at the region’s recreational geography, while the surrounding prairie is dotted with the remnants of an earlier rural school system. Numerous small educational sites, such as the Golden Prairie Sch and Pleasant View Sch, are marked as abandoned, signaling a shift in the local social structure as farming communities consolidated.
