1968 Map of Ludlow SE

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Ashcroft Butte and Flint Butte dominate this Harding County landscape, rising above a network of drainages that once supported livestock and small homesteads. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Big Nasty Creek, Coal Bank Creek, and Horse Creek, illustrating the complex water patterns in this part of South Dakota. Human impact is evidenced by a small-scale Mine near the northwestern butte and the presence of the Lanesboro Sch in the northeast, marking a point of community assembly for rural families during the late 1960s. The map also records fine red dashed lines indicating fence and field boundaries as they appeared during 1964 aerial photography, offering a detailed view of grazing land management and property lines in this high-plains environment.
