About this map

The Ranchero Oil Field and the North Rago Oil Field define the industrial footprint of this portion of Washington County during the early 1970s. The landscape is marked by numerous oil wells and drilling sites, reflecting the energy development occurring across the high plains. Natural drainage is shaped by ephemeral watercourses such as Camp Creek, Surveyor Creek, and Brunker Creek, which cut through the undulating terrain alongside Shears Draw. Local history interests are noted by the presence of a lone Grave and the site named Nancy, providing small but significant human markers in a region otherwise dominated by resource extraction. The southern portion of the sheet shows the Belle Oil Field extending toward the Base Line, where several Oil Wells and Oil Well 2 are clustered. This survey captures a specific moment when petroleum production was the primary driver of activity in this rural landscape.
