1955 Map of Pedro NW

About this map

The Cheyenne River carves a deep valley through this mid-century landscape on the border of Meade Co and Pennington Co. The upland plateaus, such as Davidson Flat, are characterized by a network of drainage channels like Tepee Draw and Chapman Draw. Settlement is sparse and largely organized around established family homesteads, reflecting the ranching culture of western South Dakota. Community life centers on the St Patricks Ch and the Timber Creek Sch located in the northern sections of the map.
