1936 Map of Fourways

About this map

The Panhandle and Santa Fe railroad corridor anchors this mid-1930s landscape, cutting a north-south path through the High Plains transition toward the Canadian River. The terrain shifts from the open rangeland of Moore County into the deeply dissected breaks of the Big Canyon area in Potter County. This period reveals a specialized ranching and industrial economy, where large family operations like the Masterson Ranch and Sneeds Ranch operated alongside modern infrastructure such as the Bivins Booster Station and the settlement at Exell. Numerous outposts, including Kilgore Sheep Camp and Sneeds South Camp, suggest a highly managed landscape of livestock production. Significant natural landmarks like John Ray Butte rise above the drainage networks of Blue Creek and North Plum Creek, which feed into the primary river valley at the bottom of the sheet.
