1982 Map of North Of Brandon

About this map

Big Sandy Creek winds along the western edge of this High Plains landscape, marking a distinct drainage pattern in an otherwise high-altitude plateau. Surveyed in the mid-1970s and finalized in 1982, the map depicts the rural border between Cheyenne Co and Kiowa Co. The terrain is defined by its industrial and agricultural utility, shown through a network of infrastructure including a prominent Pipeline and several widely dispersed resource extraction sites. Evidence of small-scale aviation and energy development is clear, with a remote Landing Strip and an Oil Well situated among the various cattle tanks and gravel workings. This map captures the region before modern expansion, preserving the exact placement of local landmarks like the Well and Tank sites that were critical to the local ranching and industrial economy of the era.
