1967 Map of Ft. George Butte

About this map

The Lower Brule Indian Reservation Boundary bisects this landscape of the northern Great Plains, marking a distinct line across a region defined by its complex drainage systems. Established during a mid-1960s survey, the map details a land primarily shaped by water and elevation, notably the Ft George Butte which stands as a prominent landmark in the northeast. The terrain is deeply incised by a series of waterways, including the winding Apple Creek, Cedar Creek, and La Roche Creek. These intermittent streams create a dense network of coulees and draws that characterize the border between Stanley and Lyman counties. Evidence of ranching and land management appears through scattered infrastructure like the Flowing Well and other wells, illustrating how water sources were managed in this open environment shortly after the mid-century.
