1955 Map of Howes

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The settlement of Howes serves as the focal point for this 1950s study of the western South Dakota plains, situated just north of the Cheyenne River. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of drainage systems, most notably the several forks of Narcelle Creek and the curiously named Whimmer Whammer Draw. This map captures a moment in the mid-century ranching era when rural infrastructure remained centered on local landmarks like the Plainview Ch and the Negro Creek Sch.
