1971 Map of Bone Spring NE

About this map

Maravillas Creek winds through the heart of this West Texas landscape, serving as a vital geographical artery in an arid environment where water management defines the human footprint. This 1971 survey illustrates a region dominated by ranching infrastructure, characterized by a series of family-named water sources and improvements such as Henderson Windmill, Shackleford Well, and Sons Well. The terrain transitions from the dramatic rises of the Santiago Mountains in the southwest to the deep cut of Big Brushy Canyon in the southeast. Conservation and public land boundaries are clearly established here, with the map showing portions of Big Bend National Park and the Black Gap Wildlife Management Area. A lone Landing Strip and various windmills like Gooden Windmill suggest the reliance on aerial and subterranean resources in this sparsely populated territory.
