1968 Map of Dripping Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Selders Ranch stands as a primary point of human settlement in this high plains landscape of Bent County during the late 1960s. The map reveals an intricate drainage system defined by the rugged carving of Rattlesnake Creek and the meandering path of Mud Creek, which flows southeast toward its confluence with the aptly named Little Angry Creek. The terrain is marked by numerous springs, most notably the eponymous Dripping Spring, which likely served as vital water sources in this semi-arid environment.
