1950 Map of Hot Springs SE

About this map

Cheyenne River waters flow through this South Dakota landscape, shaping a terrain defined by significant drainage systems and early mid-century infrastructure. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the Angostura Reservoir, a Bureau of Reclamation project that transformed the local hydrology. This 1950 survey, updated with late-1970s revisions, provides a clear view of rural settlement patterns along the Chicago and North Western rail line and scattered rural landmarks. Evidence of early community life is visible in the distribution of school and burial sites across the plains. Several family and community cemeteries are documented, including Fairview Cem to the north and Horsehead Cem and Smithwick Cem further south. Education in this ranching country centered on sites like Green Valley Sch, while the natural topography is marked by named seasonal watercourses such as Slate Spring Draw and Horse Camp Draw.
