1971 Map of Fiddler Peak

About this map

The high plains along the Phillips Co Yuma Co boundary are characterized by a network of drainage ways and intermittent water sources. Patent Creek winds through the central portion of this landscape, which in the early 1970s was marked by isolated agricultural and infrastructure outposts. The settlement of Wages and the nearby Wages Ch serve as primary focal points for local history, representing the community life of this prairie region. To the east, the terrain rises toward Fiddler Peak, the most prominent topographic landmark on the sheet. This area illustrates the late 20th-century transition toward modern resource management, evidenced by the presence of a Pipeline and a local Substa, while the numerous Well markings scattered across the survey indicate the ongoing importance of groundwater in this arid environment.
