1964 Map of Moore Ranch

About this map

The high plateau of Schleicher County, Texas, is defined by its deep draws and ranching heritage as it appeared in the mid-1960s. Linthicum Ranch and Moore Ranch anchor a landscape where water is scarce, marked primarily by numerous scattered Wells and intermittent drainages like Dove Creek Draw and Granger Draw. The economic infrastructure of the era is evident through the extensive network of pipelines and the Eldorado Pumping Station, reflecting the importance of the local oil and gas industry alongside traditional cattle raising.
