About this map

Rita Blanca Creek and its various tributaries carve a detailed drainage network across this High Plains landscape in the early 1970s. The map illustrates a region defined by its water management and agricultural infrastructure, featuring several scattered wells and the Flats Windmill located near the western edge. A Gaging Sta along Punta de Agua Creek suggests the importance of hydrological monitoring in this arid environment, where water flow in the local draws and creeks was critical for cattle ranching. The southern portion of the sheet is marked by the Hartley Co Oldham Co line, providing a clear view of the county boundary as it existed before further modern development. Other water features like Los Redos Creek and various Springs indicate the natural points of relief in a territory primarily utilized for open-range activity.
