1974 Map of Deadmans Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Seco Mines anchors the southwestern corner of this West Texas landscape, where industrial and agricultural infrastructure meet the arid brushland of Maverick County. This 1970s survey documents a complex water management system vital to the region, featuring a prominent Canal, a Siphon, and Lateral 21 cutting through the terrain. Transportation history is etched into the earth here, visible through the active Southern Pacific line and a bypass route marked as an Old Railroad Grade. The landscape is punctuated by numerous stock tanks, including Paula Tank and George Tank, which serve as critical landmarks alongside prominent elevations like Deadmans Hill and Consuelo Hill. Scattered Oil Wells and a Gravel Pit indicate the local extractive economy, while the presence of a Landing Strip and Roadside Park reflect the connectivity and transit needs of this borderlands region.
