1961 Map of Savoy

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Black Hills National Forest land dominates this 1961 survey, revealing a landscape defined by dramatic gulches and vital water sources in the high country. The small settlement of Savoy serves as a central point near the impressive Spearfish Falls and Roughlock Falls, where the canyon terrain dictates the placement of early infrastructure like the Aqueduct lines. Further south, the high Limestone Plateau is dotted with uniquely named springs, such as What the Hell Spring and Dead Oz Spring, which provided essential water in this high-elevation terrain. Local history is etched into the map through locations like the Little Spearfish Guard Station and established campsites such as the Rod and Gun Campground, alongside the more isolated settlements of Preston and Elmore and a small mountain Cemetery near Long Valley.
