1968 Map of Holabird

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The small settlement of Holabird sits along the southern edge of this Central South Dakota landscape, positioned precisely where the Chicago and North Western railroad cuts through the prairie. During the late 1960s, this area of Hyde County was defined by its sparse agrarian footprint, evidenced by the presence of Loomis Sch and a network of section lines dividing the townships of Loomis and Lincoln. The drainage of the South Fork Medicine Knoll Creek meanders through the southern portion of the quadrangle, serving as a primary water source in a region where isolated wells and several instances of a Flowing Well were critical for sustaining livestock and homesteads. The map provides a detailed view of the infrastructure supporting a remote ranching economy, from the railroad corridor to the specific township boundaries of Highmore and its neighbors.
