1973 Map of Ketchum Mountain

About this map

Ketchum Oil Field dominates the southwestern corner of this landscape, reflecting the petroleum-driven economy of Irion County in the early 1970s. The map shows a transition from the lower basins of South Liveoak Draw and Mc Dowell Draw up into the high plateau of Ketchum Mountain. This arid terrain is defined by ranching and energy extraction, with private holdings like the Magruder Ranch and Cox Ranch situated near intermittent watercourses and the Middle Concho River. Industrial infrastructure is prevalent throughout the area, including a prominent Pipeline and a central Pumping Sta. The presence of scattered Oil Wells and a Drill Hole indicates a period of active exploration and production on the Edwards Plateau during this era.
