1953 Map of Hermosa NW

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Chicago and North Western railroad cuts a diagonal path through this South Dakota landscape, providing a vital transport link for the remote settlement of Ajax. Located in Pennington County, the area is defined by sharp topographic shifts where high points like Brennan Hill and Potato Butte overlook a series of deep draws and canyons. The presence of the Neely Sch near Spring Creek suggests a once-active rural community hub centered around water and rail access.
