1961 Map of Deadwood South

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Black Hills landscape south of Deadwood is defined by a dense network of gulches and ridges that shaped the region's mining and transit history. In this 1961 survey, updated in 1971, the Burlington Northern railroad winds through the steep terrain between Lead and Pluma, following the contours of Whitewood Creek and Deadwood Creek. The map documents a transition from industrial activity to recreation, showing numerous Mines and Pits alongside the Strawberry Hill Campground and the Tomahawk Country Club. The geography is anchored by prominent summits like Pillar Peak, Bear Den Mountain, and Anchor Hill, which rise above the Black Hills National Forest. To the south, smaller settlements like Galena, Brownsville, and Roubaix sit along the creek beds, connected by Strawberry Ridge and Windy Flats.
