1972 Map of Mc Clure Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Mc Clure Butte and Eagle Butte anchor this high-plains landscape along the boundary of Prairie and Custer Counties. In the early 1970s, the region was characterized by its complex network of water management features, including Mc Clure Reservoir, Silvertip Reservoir, and the Houser Creek Reservoir. The drainage patterns are defined by the winding course of Crooked Creek and the North Fork, with smaller tributaries like Lost Boy Creek and Deer Creek carving through the terrain. Evidence of seasonal water sources appears in named sites such as Bootlegger Spring and Johnson Spring. A solitary Drill Hole in the northern section indicates subsurface exploration, while the presence of the Calypso Trail and various unnamed Jeep Trails suggests a landscape navigated primarily for ranching or resource management rather than permanent settlement.
