1956 Map of Crooks Tower

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Crooks Tower rises as a prominent landmark in the heart of the Black Hills National Forest, dominating a landscape defined by deep draws and mountain springs during the mid-1950s. This survey, conducted before modern developments reached this interior portion of the hills, reveals the sparse human footprint of the era, marked by isolated outposts like Macs Camp and McInerny Ranch. The drainage patterns are clearly defined, showing the headwaters of South Fork Rapid Creek and Spearfish Creek as they carve through the limestone terrain.
