1967 Map of Fort Lancaster

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Fort Lancaster (Ruins) sits near the confluence of Live Oak Creek and the Pecos River, marking a site of significant military history in West Texas. This 1960s survey documents the intersection of natural landmarks and mid-century industrial development, with numerous Oil Wells and a Pumping Sta scattered across the high ground of Field and Cox Hill. The landscape is defined by a dense network of drainages, including Hog Canyon, Musk Canyon, and Mailbox Draw, which carve through the limestone plateaus. Evidence of ranching and travelers' infrastructure appears through features like the Divide Windmill and a Roadside Park situated along the highway. The boundary between Crockett County and Terrell County follows the winding path of the river, anchoring the map's southern edge amidst the complex terrain of Scott Canyon and Loftin Canyon.
