1969 Map of Glass Mountains NW

About this map

The Cimarron River carves a wide, shifting path across this landscape, defining the Indefinite Boundary between Woods and Major Counties. The terrain is characterized by the distinct formations of the Glass Mountains, where early energy exploration is evident through numerous Gas Wells and scattered Drill Holes. Settlement is concentrated near Galena, a community served by the nearby Galena Cem. Local drainage is managed by small tributaries like Barney Creek, which feeds into the larger river valley. The map reveals a transition between the elevated plateaus and the sandy riverbed, documenting the rural infrastructure of the late 1960s, including a Radio Tower and a lonely Grave located in the eastern portion of Liberty.
