1982 Map of Dunlap Ranch

About this map

Rush Creek meanders across the northern portion of this High Plains landscape, marking a vital water source in an area defined by agricultural development and resource extraction. The boundary between Cheyenne Co and Kiowa Co bisects the northern sections, while the presence of the Dunlap Ranch and several scattered improvements like Well sites point to the region's ranching heritage. Linear patterns of human influence are evident in the Old Railroad Grade cutting through the northwest corner and a pipeline traversing the central corridor. Small-scale industrial activity is grounded in labels for a Drill Hole and the named locality of Quail, reflecting a landscape utilized for more than just surface grazing during the late twentieth century.
