1983 Map of Sunrise Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Sunrise Butte rises as the primary landmark in this corner of Perkins County, overlooking a landscape defined by its intricate drainage systems. The map documents a sparsely settled ranching or agricultural region in the early 1980s, where small-scale infrastructure like the Gravel Pit and a remote Well supported local land use. Waterways are the dominant geographic features, with Rabbit Creek winding through the southern portion while Indian Creek and Wolf Springs Creek carve paths through the central and northern sections. The presence of Wicks provides a point of human settlement amidst the expansive terrain, which is partitioned by the boundary lines of Adams, Chance, and Moreau. This provisional survey preserves the precise spatial arrangement of these intermittent creeks and named landmarks before modern changes reached this portion of South Dakota.
