1981 Map of Herbert Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Eagle Butte occupies the northwestern corner of this South Dakota landscape, serving as a primary hub where regional infrastructure meets the open ranch lands of the Cheyenne River Indian Reservation. The settlement pattern is defined by widely dispersed family holdings including the Webb Ranch, Elsey Ranch, and the neighboring W Keckler Ranch and R Keckler Ranch. This 1981 edition, based on earlier 1970s aerial surveys, documents a rural economy tied closely to the water table, evidenced by the prominent Aqueduct line cutting through the center of the quadrangle to support local agriculture and livestock. The terrain is shaped by the drainage systems of Herbert Creek and the East Fork Rudy Creek, while the county line between Dewey Co and Ziebach Co creates a formal boundary across the undulating prairie and draws like Beef Draw. Local community life is anchored at Shupic Park, providing a rare public landmark in this expansive grazing territory.
