1983 Map of Oak Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The arid landscape of Presidio County is defined here by a network of ephemeral water sources and ranching infrastructure recorded during the mid-1970s. Arising from drainage systems like Long Draw and Shannon Draw, the topography is carved by seasonal watercourses including Oak Creek, Saucita Creek, and Julia Creek. These features illustrate the vital importance of water management in West Texas, where isolated landmarks like the San Esteban Dam Waterhole and Hackberry Tank served as critical points for livestock and land use. Named family landmarks such as Walker Well, Goadley Windmill, and Brice Windmill provide specific points of interest for local historians and genealogists tracing ranching heritage in this high-elevation terrain. This survey reflects the geography prior to modern developments, preserving the locations of remote wells and tanks that once supported the local economy.
