1974 Map of Castle Gap

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Castle Mountain and the prominent King Mountain plateau dominate this landscape along the Crane and Upton County line. This 1970s survey captures a territory defined by the petroleum industry, with dense clusters of oil wells populating the Mc Elroy Oil Field and the Crane-Cowden Oil Field. The terrain is marked by the legendary Castle Gap, a historic pass used by pioneers and cattle drivers on the Goodnight-Loving Trail, here preserved as Castle Gap Park.
