1982 Map of Black Banks Creek West

About this map

Buffalo Gap National Grassland dominates this landscape, showing a complex drainage network where the plains transition across the South Dakota Nebraska border. The topography is defined by ephemeral and perennial watercourses, notably the branching paths of North Black Banks Creek and South Black Banks Creek. These waterways, along with Medicine Creek and Horsehead Creek, illustrate the erosional patterns of the high plains in Fall River Co. In a region where water is a primary shaper of the land, the presence of Dry Lake in the northwest corner highlights the seasonal nature of the local hydrology. This 1982 provisional survey captures the area before modern developments, preserving the layout of unimproved roads and trails that served the ranching interests within the grassland's boundaries.
