About this map

Sundance sits at the western edge of this 2017 study, where the eastern reaches of the Black Hills National Forest meet the high plains. The landscape is defined by prominent peaks and ridges, including Sundance Mountain and Sugarloaf, which overlook a network of drainage systems like Sundance Creek and Rocky Ford Creek. To the east, the terrain opens into Medicine Flat and the namesake Medicine Lake, providing a clear view of the transition from forest to prairie.

Genealogists and local historians can trace the rural infrastructure surrounding the town, from the Green Mountain Cemetery to the various roads winding through Government Valley. The map details the complex land management and topographic character of the region, featuring significant summits like Green Mountain and Mount Lewisa, while marking the industrial and residential corridors along Old US Hwy 14 and Industrial Ave.
