1980 Map of Iron Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Iron Mountain rises above a landscape defined by the intersection of early frontier divisions and modern energy extraction. The Old Indian Treaty Boundary cuts across the northern terrain, marking a significant historical line that predates the modern county divisions of Kiowa and Comanche Counties. This 1980 survey captures the region's industrial character, heavily marked by the Reeder Gas Field and a dense network of gas wells, oil wells, and exploratory drill holes. The convergence of the Medicine Lodge River with its North Branch and South Branch provides the primary drainage for this area, while the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad follows the course of Otter Creek in the southeast, linking the remote energy fields to wider commerce.
