1953 Map of Viewfield

About this map

Elk Creek winds through the heart of this West River landscape, creating a distinct corridor of vegetation and relief amidst the surrounding high plains. In the early 1950s, the small settlement of Viewfield served as a local hub near the Viewfield Cem, anchoring a rural community defined by its dispersed one-room schoolhouses. The presence of both Lost Nation Sch to the north and Red Top Sch further south reflects the educational infrastructure required for ranching families before the widespread consolidation of rural districts. This survey also documents the geopolitical boundary where Meade Co meets Pennington Co, following a straight section line that cuts across the natural drainage patterns of the Underwood terrain.
