1966 Map of Dickenson Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Mustang Draw cuts a broad, dry path across this Martin County landscape, defining the topography of the High Plains during the mid-1960s. The region is characterized by an extensive network of groundwater extraction points, essential for the ranching and agricultural operations that sustain the area. Named landmarks such as the Doggie Windmill, Rattlesnake Windmill, and Northeast Sunflower Windmill serve as critical navigational aids and historical markers of individual ranching holdings. At the namesake Dickenson Ranch, the map reveals a concentrated cluster of structures and gravel pits, while the small settlement of Courtney sits further south along the draw. The inclusion of an Aqueduct and scattered oil and gas infrastructure, including a specific Oil Well and Gas Well, highlights the evolving industrial footprint of the Permian Basin era, where traditional ranching began to coexist with energy extraction.
