1951 Map of Red Shirt NE

About this map

The Cheyenne River carves a deep path through this landscape, marking the northern limits of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. Surveyed shortly after mid-century and updated with late-1970s aerial data, the topography is defined by sharp elevation changes between high plateaus and lower drainage basins. Distinctive landforms such as Blindman Table and Plenty Star Table overlook a complex network of seasonal watercourses including Big Corral Draw and Quinn Draw. The convergence of Battle Creek and the river creates a rugged geography where Battle Creek Canyon provides a natural corridor through the terrain. This map documents the intersection of Custer, Pennington, and Shannon counties, showing the precise Reservation Boundary as it follows the meandering course of the Cheyenne.
