1951 Map of Minnekahta NE

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Harney National Forest dominates this mid-century landscape in Fall River County, where the topography is defined by deep cuts like Booms Canyon and Alabaugh Canyon. The area serves as a rugged gateway near Hot Springs, showing a rural infrastructure built around narrow creek valleys. Transport and education in this period were localized, with the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad line following the path of Hot Brook through the center of the quadrangle. The settlement of Erskine sits along these tracks, while remote schoolhouses such as Miller Sch and Cold Brook Sch highlight the dispersed nature of the community. Genealogists may also find interest in the isolated Cem located near the headwaters of Cottonwood Springs Creek, marking the presence of early inhabitants in this high-relief terrain.
