2021 Map of Cascade Springs

About this map

Cascade Springs and Rocky Ford anchor this southern Black Hills landscape where the Cheyenne River cuts through a complex system of canyons and flats. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, from the heights of Flagpole Mtn and Tepee Mtn down to the hydrologically active corridor containing Cascade Falls, Cool Spring, and Bridal Veil Spring. This modern survey reveals a patchwork of public and private lands, with significant portions of the Black Hills National Forest covering the northern and western sections. Cultural history is preserved at the Highland Cemetery and along historic transit routes like Rocky Ford Road and Cascade Road. The map provides a clear view of the area's geography, including named topographic features like Sorghum Flat, Coffee Flat, and the distinct Horseshoe Bend of the river.
