1983 Map of Grindstone Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Grindstone Butte anchors this landscape in Haakon County, rising above a network of drainages that define the local ranching geography of the early 1980s. The terrain is deeply etched by Little Grindstone Creek and Mexican Creek, which converge as they flow through the central portion of the survey. To the southwest, Deadmans Creek cuts across the lower corner of the quadrangle. This 1983 provisional edition provides a detailed look at the scattered homesteads that characterize this part of South Dakota, including the Reedy Ranch, Carley Ranch, and Clements Ranch. The map traces the distribution of family-held land through the positioning of several other sites such as the Leonard Frein Ranch and Edward Frein Ranch, offering a clear picture of the region's rural settlement pattern before modern consolidation.
