2021 Map of Rumford

About this map

Rumford is the primary settlement in this corner of Fall River County, situated at the junction of Rumford Rd and Co Hwy 78. The landscape is dominated by the expansive Buffalo Gap National Grassland, which preserves the open character of the South Dakota prairie. The terrain transitions from the distinct Plains Valley toward the more level Hat Creek Flat in the southeast. A network of drainages including Plum Cr, Piney Cr, and Horse Cr carve subtle pathways through the grassland, reflecting the natural hydrology that shaped early ranching and travel routes. Notable local arteries like Indian Canyon Rd and Co Hwy 71F connect these remote reaches, providing a clear view of the modern land divisions and access points in this rural environment.
