About this map

The town of Sundance anchors the southwestern corner of this landscape, positioned at the edge of the Black Hills National Forest. The 1980s terrain is defined by prominent peaks including Sundance Mountain and Green Mountain, which rise sharply above the drainage systems of Sundance Creek and Medicine Flat Creek. Water management is a visible priority across the northern half of the map, where a network of features like Diversion Ditch and various canals cross Government Valley.

Local infrastructure and land use are clearly marked, showing the Golf Course and Sewage Disposal Ponds near the town center, while the rural surroundings feature a Cem, the Medicine Lake reservoir, and a Campground near Sugarloaf. The map captures the transition from the forested elevations to the agricultural expanses of Medicine Flat, providing a detailed look at the roads and irrigation patterns that supported this Wyoming community during the early 1980s.
