1977 Map of Greasewood Draw

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

North Indian Creek and its many seasonal tributaries carve through this section of Butte County, revealing a landscape defined by ranching and resource extraction. The map, based on fieldwork from the early 1970s, shows a sparse network of improved and unimproved roads connecting isolated water sources and industrial markers. Notable water features such as Bean Blossom Creek and Frog Creek dominate the drainage patterns, while the label Twin Dams indicates localized water management efforts essential for livestock in this arid environment. A prominent Pipeline corridor cuts north-south across the terrain, illustrating the modern infrastructure overlaid upon the traditional ranching lands. Geologists and local historians can trace the intricate network of draws, including Greasewood Draw and Watson Draw, which illustrate the topographical complexity of the northern plains before significant further development.
