1983 Map of Hayford Lake

About this map

The expansive ranching country of the Great Plains is charted here along the state line where Tripp Co and Keya Paha Co meet. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of Shadley Creek and Lost Creek, which cut through the undulating terrain of northern Nebraska and southern South Dakota. Centered on Hayford Lake, the survey documents a region defined by large-scale agricultural operations rather than dense settlements. Evidence of the local ranching economy is prominent, with named sites such as Mf Ranch in the northwest, Worth Ranch to the east, and Rose Valley Ranch further south. These family-named landmarks serve as the primary hubs of activity in a sparse environment where water sources like the lake and its surrounding intermittent streams dictate the placement of improvements and travel routes across the border.
