1954 Map of Silver City

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Silver City and Canyon City anchor this mid-century look at the eastern Black Hills National Forest, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of mining claims and rugged gulches. The map captures a significant moment for the local hydrology as the newly formed Pactola Reservoir begins to fill, its irregular shoreline reaching into Smoker Gulch and Magpie Gulch. This period reflects the transition from small-scale historic gold prospecting to larger water management projects.
