1970 Map of Mushaway Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Mushaway Peak stands as the central topographic landmark in this West Texas landscape, overlooking a complex network of ephemeral drainage and ranching infrastructure surveyed in the late 1960s. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Colorado River in the south and the northern flow of Grape Creek, Little Grape Creek, and Hullem Creek. This area of Borden County is characterized by its reliance on water management for livestock, evidenced by dozens of named catchments such as Cunningham Tank, Shipping Trap Tank, and Red Dam Tank. The map reveals a land utilized for both ranching and mineral extraction, with numerous salt water wells, a Drill Hole, and multiple Gravel Pits scattered across the plains. Large-scale infrastructure is represented by a significant Pipeline cutting through the southern portion of the quadrangle, reflecting the region's mid-century industrial development.
