1956 Map of Miscol NE

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Grand River defines the landscape of this Corson County region, winding in deep, serpentine loops through the Missouri River Basin during the mid-1950s. The topography reveals a complex network of breaks and draws leading down to the river valley, where several points are marked simply as a Ford, indicating the historical importance of seasonal river crossings before modern infrastructure dominated the plains. In the southern portion of the map, Plum Creek flows through the breaks to join the primary waterway. This area, surveyed as part of a Department of the Interior program, shows the rural isolation and rugged terrain of the Standing Rock region, focusing on the natural drainages and primitive road tracks that connected this remote part of South Dakota.
