1954 Map of Jewel Cave SE

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Black Hills National Forest land defines this mid-century Custer County landscape, characterized by a dense network of seasonal drainages and isolated springs. The topography is dominated by the winding paths of Pass Creek and Hawkright Creek, which carve through the terrain alongside numerous water sources such as Issue Wood Spring and Sutherland Spring. Human presence is marked by isolated landmarks and rural infrastructure, including the McClelland Sch and the site of Rogers Shack. Mapping work performed by the Department of the Interior and the United States Atomic Energy Commission suggests the area's significance for mineral resource evaluation during the post-war era. The transition from high ridgelines down into Red Canyon in the southeast corner illustrates the complex drainage systems that define this part of the Black Hills.
