1973 Map of Macs Corner

About this map

Macs Corner stands as the primary namesake for this rural landscape in Hyde County, where the topography transitions into the Crow Creek Indian Reservation. The map details a network of early 1970s section roads and small-scale infrastructure essential to this agricultural region, including a Radio Tower and several Flowing Wells. Educational and social hubs are represented by the Peno Sch and Convent Sch, providing key reference points for local history and genealogy. Water features such as Lake Ambrose, the West Fork, and Elm Creek define the drainage patterns across the townships of Eagle, Van Order, Dewey, and Peno. Resource extraction is evident through scattered Gravel Pits, indicating the local materials used for road construction and maintenance in this part of South Dakota.
