1973 Map of Okobojo SW

About this map

Lake Oahe dominates the western landscape of this Missouri River region, where the reservoir waters have reshaped the traditional terrain of central South Dakota. The topography here reflects a mid-1970s landscape defined by recreational development along the shoreline and the persistent markers of earlier eras. The Old Military Reservation Boundary cuts across the prairie, while the presence of the Plainview Sch and numerous Gravel Pit sites suggests the rural infrastructure of the period. Along the eastern banks, multiple access points like the Okobojo Creek Recreation Area and Spring Creek Recreation Area indicate the shift toward water-based tourism and conservation. The boundary between Sully Co and Hughes Co is clearly delineated as it moves through the winding drainages of Cow Creek and Spring creek.
