1981 Map of Blackpipe

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Blackpipe sits within the undulating landscape of Bennett County, where the drainage of Black Pipe Creek and Pass Creek shapes the local topography. This 1981 edition, based on aerial photography from the mid-1970s, captures the rural character of south-central South Dakota during a period of steady land use. The presence of the Pleasant Valley Sch suggests a community structure centered around localized education and agricultural ranching. The terrain is defined by distinct landmarks such as Brushy Butte, while water management is evidenced by the Scharman Dam and the shoreline of White Lake to the southwest. The map provides a clear record of the section lines and rural tracks that networked these isolated settlements and landmarks before the digital era.
