1965 Map of Dewey Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Dewey Lake and a series of smaller catchment basins and alkaline playas characterize this mid-1960s landscape in Glasscock County. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage channels, including Mustang Draw, Johnson Draw, and Meyers Draw, which emphasize the arid hydrology of the region. Local infrastructure is sparse, dominated by utility lines and various watering points such as Bluebell Tank and Big Tank, which supported the livestock operations of the era. Settlement is minimal, with Powell Ranch serving as one of the few named residential sites. The presence of several Gravel Pits and various drill holes reflects the early industrial footprint of mineral and petroleum exploration. Tracing the fine red dashed lines on the sheet reveals historical fence lines, offering a precise view of property boundaries and ranching divisions during the transition to modern land management.
