This tourist map of the Black Hills region was published by the Baken Park Cottages and extends from Rapid City west to include Sturgis, Deadwood, Spearfish, Mt. Rushmore, Custer State Park, and Wind Cave National Park. A legend at lower right identifies surfaced (paved), graveled, and secondary roads used to access the area's attractions. Small inset maps provide additional detail on the Badlands, Devil's Tower, and the location of the Baken Park resort property just outside of Rapid City. The verso features text and illustrations describing Baken Park "where over 30,000 visitors stay every year!"
