1969 Map of Circle Dot Ranch NE

About this map

Dry plateaus and deeply carved drainages characterize this West Texas landscape in the late 1960s, a terrain defined by intermittent watercourses like Dry Creek and McKay Creek. The solitary presence of Mitchell Ranch suggests the vast distances between homesteads in this portion of Terrell County, where ranching and energy extraction are the primary human imprints. Evidence of the region's petroleum industry is visible through a Gas Well, an Oil Well, and a prominent Pipeline crossing the northern terrain. Named topographic points such as Mitchell, Center, and Rit serve as the few navigational markers across these high elevations. This survey reflects a moment before significant modern development, showing the area as it existed when topographic mapping was largely conducted via aerial photography and field checking by the Geological Survey.
