1953 Map of Folsom

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Folsom serves as the primary landmark on this South Dakota survey, situated along the county line where Pennington Co and Custer Co meet. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Spring Creek, which meanders eastward toward its confluence with the Cheyenne R in the southeast corner. This mid-century study reveals a sparsely populated ranching and agricultural region, where local education centered on the McMann Sch near the eastern edge of the quadrangle. High ground is marked by the distinctive Railroad Buttes to the north, while the southern portion of the map is dominated by the broad expanse of Phiney Flat. This topographic record, based on 1948 aerial photography and 1953 field checks, provides a clear view of the rural road network and section lines as they existed during the development of the Missouri River Basin project.
