Book excerpt: Excerpt from South Dakota Geological Survey Bulletin Number Six 1914, Vol. 6: A Preliminary Report on the Biology of Harding County, Northwestern South Dakota Harding county is the most northwestern county in South Dakota. It is bordered on the north by Bowman county, North Dakota, on the west by Custer county, Montana, on the south by Butte county, South Dakota, and on the east by Perkins county. It is approximately 50 miles square and so extends southward nearly to the wyoming-montana-south Dakota corner. Most of the area is a treeless, semi-arid, rolling plain having an average elevation of about feet. Upon this uneven plain rise several large more or less forested buttes (cave Hills in the north central, Slim Buttes in the east and. Short Pine Hills in the southwest), and numerous smaller buttes. Below the general level have been eroded many valleys which are most conspicuous because deepest, towards the borders of the county. Badland areas are scattered widely. The finest examples are at various points in or bordering the buttes, especially at Reva gap in the Slim Buttes and about the northeastern end Of the East Short Pine Hills. The jump Off which extends for several miles eastward from the East Short Pines is notable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
