1965 Map of Mud Buttes NW

About this map

Gilger Ranch and McClure Ranch anchor the northern landscape of this Butte County territory, where the drainages of South Indian Creek and Watson Draw carve through the high plains. The map illustrates a mid-century ranching environment defined by wide-reaching water systems, including the long paths of Owl Creek and Big Creek. A prominent Pipeline and its associated Pumping Station cut across the terrain near Antelope Sch, signaling the technical infrastructure required to support this remote region.
