1951 Map of Dewey

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Dewey and Dakoming anchor the western edge of the Black Hills along the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad line, marking a rugged borderland between South Dakota and Wyoming. The landscape transition is stark, moving from the open drainage of Beaver Creek and Hay Creek into the wooded uplands of the Harney National Forest. This 1951 field-checked survey reveals an economy rooted in extraction and limited water resources, evidenced by the Lucky Strike Bentonite Mine and numerous artesian wells.
