About this map

Powell Sheep Camp sits in the high desert landscape of West Texas, providing a rare human marker in a region defined by its reliance on water management. This 1959 survey of the Mitchell and Sterling County border illustrates a sprawling network of ranching infrastructure, where named stock tanks are the primary landmarks across the arid terrain. The map captures the complex water distribution system essential for livestock, featuring numerous family-named and functional catchments such as Old Boatright Tank, Horse Pasture Tank, and Northwest Seamen Tank.
