1983 Map of Hayes North

About this map

Frozen Man Creek and Wagonhound Creek carve through this central South Dakota landscape, defining the drainage patterns for the sprawling cattle operations that dominate the region. This 1983 provisional survey highlights the specific family lineages tied to the land, including the B Stoeser Ranch, A Stoeser Ranch, and properties belonging to the Burgeson family such as the A A Burgeson Ranch. The presence of a Historical Marker in the northern portion of the quadrangle suggest points of local significance on the open range. Further south, the Hayes Airport and the Riggle Ranch serve as primary landmarks in this sparsely populated section of Stanley County, where unimproved roads and trails form the backbone of the local transport network.
