1954 Map of Dalzell NW

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Belle Fourche River meanders across the southern portion of this landscape, its path defined by a Levee and various benchmarks like XBM 2130. This mid-century survey, conducted as part of the Department of the Interior program for the development of the Missouri River Basin, reveals a sparse ranching and farming territory where water sources and elevation markers dictate human activity. The presence of the Cowen Sch in the northwest corner suggests a localized center for a rural community, while the drainage network including Killdeer Creek, Badlands Creek, and East Creek carves through the undulating terrain. A simple Ford provides a crossing point over the river, emphasizing the reliance on basic infrastructure in this part of Meade County during the 1950s.
