1978 Map of Lyman
USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
The town of Lyman sits at the southwestern edge of this 1970s South Dakota landscape, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural townships. The Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad cuts through the southern reaches of the map, illustrating the critical role of rail transport in the regional economy during the late twentieth century. In the northwest corner, Medicine Creek carves a distinctive path through the terrain, with nearby quarries indicating local industrial activity. The area is clearly divided by several administrative boundaries, including the townships of Pleasant, Lafayette, Reliance, and Rex. This survey provides a clear look at the intersection of prairie topography and the structured township system typical of the Great Plains.
