About this map

Deerfield sits at the heart of this Pennington County landscape, where the waters of Castle Cr flow into Deerfield Lake. The area is defined by a series of high-altitude clearings and family holdings, including Reynolds Prairie and the Reynolds Ranch. The terrain is marked by distinctive formations like Flag Mountain, Nipple Butte, and Castle Rock, which served as landmarks for early travelers and settlers in the Black Hills.

Modern recreation and historic land use intersect here, with numerous sites such as the Custer Trail Campground, Dutchman Campground, and Gold Run Campground scattered near the shoreline. Evidence of the region's ranching heritage is preserved through labels for the Miller Ranch, Oberg Ranch, and Prickett Ranch. The network of Forest Service roads, including Rochford Road and Deerfield 134, traces the valleys and draws that once supported a more isolated mountain community.
