About this map

Spearfish anchors the northern edge of the Black Hills in this 2021 study, where the plains meet the rising forested topography of the Black Hills National Forest. The map documents the city's modern street grid, including W Jackson Blvd and E Colorado Blvd, while highlighting institutional landmarks like Black Hills State University and the D C Booth Historic National Fish Hatchery. Beyond the residential core, the landscape is defined by dramatic elevation changes and named drainages such as Spearfish Canyon and False Bottom Cr.

To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly complex, marked by the settlement of Maitland and significant landmarks like Richmond Hill and Tetro Rock. Local history is preserved at Rose Hill Cem and the more remote Carbonate Cem, providing essential coordinates for genealogical research. The map also traces the transition from urban infrastructure to resource management and recreation, featuring the Black Hills Airport-Clyde Ice Field and numerous trails like the Mount Roosevelt Trl.
