1954 Map of Quinn Table

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Cheyenne River winds through the northwest corner of this Pennington County landscape, where the flat alluvial plain of Brennan Flat transitions into the high, level plateau of Quinn Table. This 1954 field check captures the area's rural educational infrastructure with the Lincoln Sch and Quinn Table Sch serving as local landmarks in an era of dispersed ranching and dryland farming. To the south, the topography drops sharply into the eroded breaks and complex drainage networks of Badlands National Park. The map documents a water-dependent economy through features like Lakner Dam and a lone Windmill, while the network of ephemeral streams such as Sage Creek, Crooked Creek, and Anderson Draw illustrates the region's sharp relief and seasonal water patterns. Notable geological markers like White Butte stand as orienting points for surveyors and ranchers alike.
