About this map

The Black Hills National Forest straddles the rugged state line where Wyoming and South Dakota meet. This high-altitude landscape is defined by its complex network of drainage systems, with Stockade Beaver Creek and Beaver Creek carving through the western terrain while Boles Canyon and Sled Canyon dominate the southeastern reach. The small settlement of Moon sits near the eastern boundary, serving as a rare point of human habitation amidst a territory largely shaped by forestry and water management. For those interested in the hydrology of the Black Hills, the map identifies numerous isolated water sources including Rudenvale Spring, Thomson Spring, and Summit Spring, many situated along the steep slopes of Summit Ridge. The presence of several family-named canyons, such as Kinney Canyon and Thomson Canyon, suggests a history of localized grazing or timber activity in the late twentieth century.
