1954 Map of Midland SE

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Chicago and North Western railway cuts through the northern landscape of South Dakota, following the winding valley of the Bad River. This mid-century survey captures the rural infrastructure along the Haakon and Jones county line, where the land is dominated by significant drainage basins like Lone Tree Creek and South Creek. Educational centers for the local ranching community are anchored by the White Bell Sch, a localized landmark in an area otherwise defined by topographical features such as Madsen and Lone Tree. Commercial activity is represented by Gravel Pits located near the rail line, while natural landmarks like Little Prairie Dog Creek and the T M Draw define the erosion patterns of the western prairie. This map reflects the period's focus on the Missouri River Basin development, illustrating the relationship between the rail corridor and the surrounding tributary systems.
