1967 Map of Ft. George Butte NW

About this map

Antelope Creek and Timber Creek carve through this high plains landscape along the Stanley and Lyman County line during the late 1960s. The region is defined by its wide, drainage-cut plateaus, where water sources like the Flowing Well were vital to the local ranching economy. Rural education is anchored by the Cedar Valley Sch, a solitary landmark in an area characterized by sparse settlement and section-line roads. To the south, the topography descends toward the valley of Cedar Creek, including its South Branch, near the Cedar Creek Recreation Area. This survey provides a precise look at the land use and hydrology of the Missouri River hinterlands before significant modern infrastructure altered the more traditional rural patterns of central South Dakota.
