About this map

Rochford and the surrounding Black Hills terrain are defined by a complex network of drainages and historical mining-era landmarks. The landscape is carved by Rapid Cr and its numerous tributaries, including the colorfully named Bloody Gulch, Moonshine Gulch, and Bearcat Gulch. To the west, Castle Peak rises as a prominent landmark near the Castle Peak Campground.

Transportation through this high-country region follows winding paths such as Rochford Road and Mystic Rd, connecting smaller outposts like Mystic and Redfern. The map documents localized history through the Rochford Cem and the Rochford Forest Service Facility, while the presence of Lookout Mill suggests the area's industrial past. Broad clearings like Slate Prairie contrast with the narrow, steep-walled gulches that dominate the central and northern sections of the quadrangle.
