About this map

The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts across the northern edge of this West Texas landscape, skirting the drainage of Spring Creek and Dutch Woman Draw. This 1971 survey captures a sparsely populated region where Irion, Crockett, and Schleicher counties meet along an Indefinite Boundary. The economy of the era is marked by intermittent oil wells and a persistent network of pipelines that cross the high plateaus and draws. Significant topographic landmarks like O-Nine Draw and the prominent Monument in the northeast indicate the orientation of cattle ranching and resource extraction in this arid environment. Surveyors noted fine details of land management, including numerous fence lines and a Gravel Pit, providing a specialized record of the terrain before late 20th-century developments reached this portion of the Edwards Plateau.
