1953 Map of Hermosa NW

About this map

Spring Creek winds through this South Dakota landscape, providing a vital water source for the scattered ranching and agricultural operations of Pennington County during the mid-20th century. The settlement of Ajax and the point labeled Warbonnet represent small interior hubs of activity, while the Chicago and North Western railroad cuts a diagonal path through the southeastern corner, linking this territory to larger markets. Educational life in the rural district is anchored by the Neely Sch, situated near the creek's edge.
