About this map

Mount Rushmore National Memorial stands as the central landmark of this mid-century survey, surrounded by the deep mining and timber heritage of the Black Hills National Forest. The map documents a landscape transitioning from its pioneer mining roots toward a burgeoning tourism economy. Historic mining operations like the Empire Mine, Holy Smoke Mine, and Etta Mine are clustered near Keystone, while the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad line snakes through the rocky terrain to serve these industrial hubs.
