1952 Map of Cuthbert

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Cuthbert and the surrounding plains of Mitchell County are defined by a mid-century energy boom, as indicated by the extensive Oil Field developments and scattered Oil Wells throughout the landscape. The terrain transitions from the broken drainage of Cedar Canyon and the Red Hills in the north toward the meandering paths of Morgan Creek and Hasting Creek to the south. Local water management is central to life in this arid environment, evidenced by livestock-watering structures like Bozeman Tank, Bert Tank, and Bombsight Tank. Educational and community hubs are represented by the Carr Sch and the industrial outpost at Butler Camp. This survey captures the region just as technological infrastructure, including numerous windmills and a complex network of private roads, was being established to support both ranching and petroleum extraction.
