1958 Map of Lame Deer

About this map

Lame Deer serves as the primary hub in this late 1950s survey of the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation, with the town's Lame Deer Sch and Rodeo Grounds marking the community center. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of drainage systems, including Lame Deer Creek, Sweet Medicine Gulch, and Spotted Elk Creek, which carve through the high plains. A clear sense of the area's rural social structure is evident in the presence of the Muddy Creek Ch and the adjacent Muddy Creek Cem located to the west along Muddy Creek.
