1951 Map of Willow Creek NE

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Pine Ridge Indian Reservation landscape is defined by the stark transition from high tablelands to deeply eroded drainage basins. The prominent Cuny Table dominates the northern portion of the sheet, providing a level plateau that drops sharply into a network of canyons and creek beds. This terrain dictated the early movement and land use patterns within the reservation, as seen in the way East Horse Creek and West Horse Creek wind through the dissected topography. Compiled from 1948 aerial photography and revised in the late 1970s, this survey highlights the intricate hydrology of the region, including the headwaters of Willow Creek and the bifurcated branches of East Fork Mule Creek and West Fork Mule Creek. The map serves as a detailed record of the natural breaks and land divisions within this portion of South Dakota's interior.
