1970 Map of McKenzie Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

McKenzie Lake and the winding course of McKenzie Draw dominate this West Texas landscape in the early 1970s. The survey captures a transition in the Llano Estacado, where the terrain is marked by numerous natural depressions and specific water sources crucial for ranching and settlement. Detailed labels distinguish between the Good Water Well and the Bad Water Well, providing a clear record of groundwater quality at the time of the survey. Human infrastructure is sparse but distinctive, ranging from the Twin Windmills to a Roadside Park along the highway. Evidence of resource extraction and local industry appears in the form of several Gravel Pit sites and a Drill Hole, while the curious BM 3153 Chassis marker serves as a specific landmark for surveyors and local historians tracing the physical remains of the era.
