1973 Map of Rousseau

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Lake Sharpe dominates this section of the Missouri River in central South Dakota, marking the boundary between Hughes and Stanley counties. The small settlement of Rousseau sits on the northern bank, served by the Chicago and North Western railroad and the Rousseau Sch. The landscape is defined by deeply eroded draws such as Mosteller Draw and Trumbo Draw that drain into the river valley. To the south, across the water, the Lower Brule Indian Reservation Boundary is clearly delineated alongside the Old Indian Treaty Boundary. Notable landmarks include the Holy Name Chapel and its associated Cem, along with the Roadside Park near the riverbank. This map captures the region's character as a crossroads of indigenous history, early rail infrastructure, and mid-century water management.
