1973 Map of Bristol West

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Bristol Valley defines the topography of this South Dakota landscape, where the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad cuts a diagonal line through the northern plains. The small settlement of Bristol sits at the eastern edge of the quadrangle, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural townships of Andover and Scotland. A series of natural depressions and wetlands are preserved within the National Waterfowl Production Area, contrasting with the orderly grid of section lines and fence rows identified during this 1970s survey. Local landmarks like the Bethany Cem and the Town Hall provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracking the community's civic and social footprint. The presence of a Gravel Pit and Mud Creek further illustrate the interaction between local industry and the natural drainage patterns of Day County.
