1967 Map of Haystack Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Haystack Butte and the smaller Little Haystack rise above a landscape defined by ranching and water management in the late 1960s and early 1980s. The map captures the infrastructure of the high desert, where named draws like Sixmile Draw, Crockett Draw, and Bosque Draw direct the flow of seasonal water. Human presence is centered on established homesteads such as the South Van Eaton Ranch, Chatten-Muncy Ranch, and Cooper Ranch. Because of the arid environment, the map is densely labeled with vital water sources, including Bosque Spring, Ramadge Lake, and numerous named tanks like McBride Tank and Salt Cedar Tank. For genealogists and local historians, these family-named features and ranch boundaries provide a clear view of land use and property lines in this corner of Chaves County before further modern development.
