1934 Map of Ady

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Canadian River carves a deep valley through this portion of Potter and Oldham Counties, defining a landscape of complex drainage systems and isolated cattle ranching outposts. During the early 1930s, the region was characterized by its vast ranch holdings and the vital transit corridor of the Fort Worth and Denver City RR, which runs parallel to the Fort Worth and Denver Highway in the north. Named ranch sites like L S Ranch, Vanetta Ranch, and Tecovas Spring (Fryingpan Ranch) reflect the local livestock economy, while the presence of Hereford Well and Rock Canyon Well highlight the critical importance of water access in the high plains. Significant topographic landmarks, such as the broken terrain of Five Fingers and the prominent Rotten Hill, sit between deep-cut canyons like Rock Canyon and Goodman Canyon, illustrating the erosional power of the river's tributaries.
