1966 Map of Ox Yoke Creek

About this map

The South Wichita River meanders through this portion of King County, defining a landscape of deep drainages and cattle country as it appeared in the mid-1960s. The map illustrates a network of named waterways feeding into the river, including Ox Yoke Creek, Bird Creek, and Spring Creek. Human presence is marked primarily by ranching infrastructure and energy exploration, with numerous scattered drill holes and a Gas Well indicating the area's geological utility. Land use is further characterized by the presence of Jerrys Tank and a Corral, alongside a utility pipeline that traverses the northern terrain. This survey, updated with 1979 aerial photography, documents the transition of this rural territory toward more intensive resource extraction while maintaining its fundamental character as open rangeland.
