1998 Map of Deerfield

About this map

Deerfield Lake dominates the southern portion of this high-elevation landscape, situated within the expansive Black Hills National Forest. The map documents a rugged drainage network defined by Castle Creek and its many tributaries, including Horsetief Creek and South Fork Creek. Mining activity is a notable historical footprint here, with operations such as the Yellow Bird Mine, King of the West Mine, and Divide Lode Mine concentrated in the northern sections. This late 20th-century update reveals a landscape of working ranches and seasonal camps scattered throughout the forest, including the Lesserring Ranch, Kinney Ranch, and the evocatively named Merry-Go-Round Camp. Educational and civic life is anchored by the Castle Rock Sch near Deerfield, while significant topography like Flag Mountain and White Tail Peak provided vantage points for a Lookout Tower and a Gaging Station used to monitor the region’s vital water resources.
