1956 Map of Wakpala NW

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Grand River flows through the southern portion of this landscape within the Standing Rock Indian Reservation, where the creation of Lake Oahe is documented through purple revision overlays. These updates, based on 1976 aerial photography, illustrate the rising water levels at elevation 1608 feet, significantly altering the river valley compared to the original 1956 field checks. Cultural landmarks like Long Hill Cem and Sacred Heart Cem are situated on the higher ground north of the river, providing valuable points of reference for local historians and genealogists.
