1951 Map of Cedar Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Cedar Canyon and its complex network of seasonal drainages define this portion of the South Dakota landscape along the Perkins Co and Meade Co line. In the early 1950s, the area maintained a rural infrastructure centered on the small settlement of Cedar Canyon and isolated community hubs like the Town Hall to the west. Local life is anchored by the Prairie Home Ch and the Horse Butte Sch, while the Ben Ash Historical Monument stands near the intersection of the primary roadway, Route 212. The topography is marked by named high points such as Vrooman, Mildrew, and Eagle, which rise above the draws of Dillon Draw and Big Cedar Creek. This survey captures a moment when the regional economy was tied to ranching and small-scale operations like the local Gravel Pit.
