1979 Map of Roundhouse Rock

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Roundhouse Rock and the surrounding high plains of Morrill County are documented here in the late 1970s, showcasing a landscape defined by cattle ranching and early energy exploration. The topography is marked by significant natural gaps and breaks, most notably Birdcage Gap, which provides passage through the northern bluffs. Water remains the critical factor for settlement and survival in this arid region, with the course of Pumpkin Creek and Middle Creek complemented by several named water sources like Spring and Duggers Spring. For genealogists, the Redington Cem stands as a primary point of interest in the northwestern corner. The map also records the footprint of local industry, including a Ford for crossing the creek, a Gravel Pit, and scattered evidence of petroleum interest indicated by an Oil Well and a Drill Hole.
