2015 Map of Hereford

About this map

Hereford sits within a landscape defined by the winding course of the Belle Fourche River as it cuts through Meade County. This 2015 U.S. Geological Survey representation captures the rural character of the region, where a network of gravel and local roads like Hereford Rd and Alkali Rd connect isolated homesteads and ranching lands. The topography is deeply etched by a system of intermittent waterways, including Elm Cr, Dry Elm Cr, and Dry Cr, which flow toward the primary river valley. The map details the Township and Range system across boundaries such as t6n r9e and t5n r10e, illustrating the geometric land divisions typical of the Great Plains. Local access points like Wurnig Rd and Landfall Pl provide specific navigation markers for genealogists and local historians tracing family holdings near the river's edge.
