1983 Map of Horse Tooth

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Horse Tooth rises above the rolling grasslands of the Peno Basin in this detailed 1980s look at the border between Pennington and Haakon counties. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Bad River, where the North Fork Bad River and Deep Creek carve through the high plains. Human presence is sparse but centered on community landmarks like the Peno Basin Civic Center and the Big White Sch, indicating a landscape of ranching and remote education. The presence of the St Paul Cem and the Severson Ranch provides specific points of interest for genealogists tracing local families in this portion of South Dakota. The survey also captures the infrastructure of the era, including a major transmission line cutting across the northern sections and the small settlement of Poeno near its eponymous creek.
