1978 Map of Owl Butte NE

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Sulphur Creek and its southern tributaries dominate this landscape in western South Dakota, where the topography is defined by open prairie and intermittent drainage patterns. The map shows the land just after the mid-1970s, characterized by ranching infrastructure and isolated survey markers. Water management is central to the area's utility, evidenced by the presence of a Well and a Drill Hole in the northern sections. Along with Trail Creek and Doody Creek, these waterways suggest a landscape where seasonal flow dictates the movement of people and livestock. The 1978 edition reflects a quiet period of rural land use, documented with precision by the U.S. Geological Survey through photogrammetric methods.
