1953 Map of New Underwood NW

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Elk Creek meanders deeply across the center of this rural landscape, carving a complex network of draws and breaks into the West River terrain. This 1953 field-checked survey captures the area at a time when small rural educational centers like Brehm Sch still served the local ranching community. The topography is defined by the sharp contrast between the high tablelands and the winding valley floor, where Antelope Cr joins the larger drainage system. The boundary between Meade Co and Pennington Co bisects the southern portion of the sheet, while scattered benchmarks such as Br 2788 and Br 2739 indicate the established local road network that connected these remote sections of the South Dakota plains.
