1955 Map of Pedro SE

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Pleasant View Sch stands as a central social landmark in this mid-century western South Dakota landscape, where the vast open range of Pennington County is defined by its scattered cattle operations. Working ranches including Dale Ranch, Knutson Ranch, and Strandell Ranch are mapped across the rolling terrain, illustrating a settlement pattern based on wide grazing territories and seasonal water sources. The topography is deeply carved by drainage systems like Mixed Food Creek and the East Fork Deep Creek, while the Stony Buttes and the aptly named 7D Draw provide distinct navigational markers. This 1950s survey documents the region during the Bureau of Reclamation's Missouri River Basin project, capturing the rural homesteads of Erickson Ranch and O'Connell Ranch along the Pennington and Haakon county line.
