1950 Map of Minnekahta

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Bradley Flats and the surrounding southern Black Hills are documented here as they appeared in 1950, showing a landscape defined by the intersection of rail transit and protected natural monuments. The small settlement of Minnekahta serves as a central junction along the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad, which winds through the complex topography of Hell Canyon and Argyle Canyon. Land use in the mid-century is a mix of public conservation and private agriculture, featuring the Fossil Cycad National Monument and the extensive Harney National Forest alongside established sites like the Z R Ranch and Johnson Ranch. Local education and community nodes are anchored by School No 3 and Marty Sch, while physical landmarks such as Matias Peak and Parker Peak provide orientation across the diverse terrain of canyons and springs.
