1956 Map of Herbert Creek SE

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Herbert Creek and its complex network of seasonal drainages define this mid-century landscape on the border of Dewey and Stanley counties. Surveyed in the years following the war, the map documents a terrain of expansive open country marked by family-named landmarks like Olson Draw and Talcutt Draw. The southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the Cheyenne R and the distinctive formations of the Gray Buttes, which rise above the surrounding plains. The presence of numerous fence lines across the sections suggests the area's primary use for cattle ranching. The topographical detail, including features like Kid Rich Flats and Beef Draw, provides a clear view of the natural water distribution and land use patterns prior to significant modern development in the Missouri River Basin region.
