1962 Map of Muleshoe NE

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Pleasant Valley Community House and Nickels Gin anchor the social and industrial life of this Llano Estacado landscape, situated along the county line between Bailey and Lamb counties. This map, featuring data from 1962 with updates through 1979, illustrates a high plains economy transitioning through the mid-20th century, defined by extensive irrigation wells and the presence of the Panhandle and Santa Fe railroad corridor. The natural geography is dominated by the ephemeral drainage of Blackwater Draw, which cuts across the northern terrain, and the alkaline basin of Soda Lake. Scattered Sandpits and a prominent Radio Tower indicate the development of local infrastructure, while numerous Jeep Trails and a private Landing Strip provide the primary means of navigating the expansive, flat farm and ranch lands.
