About this map

The Pine Ridge Indian Reservation landscape defines this 1981 survey of the borderlands between Jackson and Bennett Counties. The terrain is characterized by the erosional patterns of the northern Great Plains, where the winding courses of Potato Creek and Bear-in-the-Lodge Creek carve through the prairie. Near the small settlement of Hisle, the St Joseph Cem serves as a vital point of reference for genealogists and local historians tracking family roots in this rural community. The presence of Snake Butte provides a prominent topographic landmark in an area otherwise dominated by the gentle drainages of Corn Creek and the expansive reservation lands. This map captures the region's ranching-focused settlement pattern and the essential water sources that dictate the placement of roads and homesteads across the South Dakota plains.
