About this map

Logan and the surrounding plains of the Missouri River Basin appear here during a period of steady agricultural development in central South Dakota. The landscape is defined by the Chicago and North Western railroad corridor, which cuts north toward the small settlement of Eakin. Fine red dashed lines throughout the quadrangle indicate fence and field lines as they appeared during 1966 aerial photography, providing a precise record of mid-century land use and property divisions between Sully and Hughes Counties.

Local civic life is centered around the Felicia Sch and the Blunt Cemetery on the southern edge of the sheet. Industrial activity is concentrated near the tracks at the Gravel Pits, while the presence of a mapped Well underscores the importance of water infrastructure in this rural upland region. This survey was produced as part of the Department of the Interior's broader program for development within the basin.
