About this map

Mount Rushmore National Memorial anchors the northern boundary of this topographic survey, which spans a critical section of the Black Hills during the mid-20th century. The landscape is defined by the transition from protected federal lands within the Black Hills National Forest to the extensive grounds of Custer State Park. Mining history is heavily represented in the northeastern corner near Spokane, where the Spokane Mine and Cuyahoga Mine suggest the region's enduring extraction industry. Further south, the map details the development of recreational and cultural sites, including the Black Hills Playhouse and Camp Remington. This era of mapping documents the sophisticated infrastructure of the park system, from the Custer State Park Headquarters and State Park Sch to water features like Center Lake and Legion Lake, reflecting the growth of tourism and civic planning in the Black Hills.
