1961 Map of Maurice

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The northern reaches of the Black Hills National Forest are defined here by a complex system of gulches and peaks that drop toward the city of Spearfish. Dominating the northern landscape is the prominent summit of Crow Peak, while the southeastern corner focuses on the small settlement of Maurice along Spearfish Creek. This area shows a transition from high forest terrain to the developed valley floors, where infrastructure like the Pumping Station and an Aqueduct serviced the growing local community. Early transportation routes are evident through Tollgate Road and Tollgate, suggesting the historical movement of goods and people through these gaps. Natural landmarks such as Bridal Veil Falls and Citadel Rock punctuate the landscape, while numerous water sources like Higgins Spring and Cabin Springs indicate the vital role of water management in this part of the Black Hills.
