1952 Map of Hamill NW

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The White River carves a deep, winding path through the northern half of this South Dakota landscape, marking the natural boundary between Tripp and Lyman counties. While the northern terrain is defined by the river’s floodplain and the elevations of Bailey, the southern portion transitions into the rolling hills of Roseland. Water is the lifeblood of this prairie region, as seen in the numerous drainage systems including No Moccasin Creek, Black Dog Creek, and Moccasin Creek. Human presence is sparse and centered on the cattle industry and local education, evidenced by the scattered Schooler Ranch, Nelson Ranch, and the Gassman Sch. A Flowing Well in the center of the sheet indicates the reliance on subterranean water sources in this mid-century agricultural environment.
