1958 Map of Piedmont

About this map

The town of Pierpont serves as the focal point for this survey of the northeastern South Dakota prairie, situated along the tracks of the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad. The landscape is characterized by its agricultural layout and small water bodies, notably Pierpont Lake and its associated Pierpont Lake Recreation Area. Rural educational life is visible through the presence of Union Prairie Sch and School No 180, which reflect the distributed settlement pattern common in the Missouri River Basin development era. The topography is dotted with numerous small potholes and basins, typical of the region's glaciated plains, while the small Gravel Pit indicates local mineral extraction used for maintaining the grid of county roads.
