About this map

Custer National Forest dominates this landscape in northwestern South Dakota, where the distinctive landforms of the North Cave Hills and South Cave Hills rise above the surrounding plains. The topography is defined by a network of drainage draws and deep incisions such as Devils Canyon, Icebox Canyon, and Timber Canyon. Water sources are critical landmarks in this arid environment, evidenced by numerous named points like Alice Spring, Travers Spring, and the uniquely titled Johnny Pocket Spring Number One.

Surface transportation is limited to a few arterial routes including Brown-Johnson Rd and S Cave Hills Rd, which navigate the complex terrain. Significant high points like Castle Rock and the Craig Pass corridor provide natural navigational markers. The map captures a section of the American West where the legacy of public land management and the naming of small, vital water features like J B Clarkson Spring Number Two reflect the area's ranching and conservation history.
