About this map

Harney National Forest dominates this landscape on the border of Custer and Fall River counties, where the topography transitions from the high, open Robinson Flats into a complex network of drainage systems. The presence of several family-named locations such as Johnson Ranch, Robinson Ranch, and Hay Ranch underscores the area's history of high-country ranching. These outposts were supported by remote rural infrastructure, including Robinson Sch and White Draw Sch. Industrial activity is noted in the more desolate reaches, including a Stone Quarry and an Oil Well (Abandoned). The terrain is defined by deep incisions like Red Canyon and Dudley Canyon, illustrating the rugged drainage patterns typical of this portion of the Black Hills region during the mid-century era.
