1972 Map of Keldron

About this map

The Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad corridor defines the development and transport patterns of this plains landscape along the North Dakota South Dakota state line. The small settlement of Keldron sits at the heart of this 1970s survey, positioned where the rail line follows the natural drainage of Hay Creek. Rural life is marked by local landmarks like the Knoke Sch to the northwest and a lone Cem tucked near the county boundary. To the southeast, the terrain shifts toward water management and recreation at Morristown Lake, featuring a designated Picnic Area and a clearly marked Spillway. The presence of the Thunder Hawk Custer lands illustrates the complex layering of township, county, and tribal borders that characterize this region of the Dakotas.
