1968 Map of Rustler Camp

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Tongue River (South Pease) carves through the high plains of West Texas, anchoring a landscape defined by seasonal drainages and remote ranching outposts. This 1968 survey, updated with 1979 revisions, highlights the isolated settlement of Rustler Camp situated near the headwaters of Rustler Creek. The area’s geography is shaped by the transition between the rolling breaks and the flatter tablelands, evidenced by the numerous springs such as Wolf Springs and unnamed Springs scattered near Grapevine Creek. Industrial activity in this sparsely populated region is represented by the Quanah Acme and Pacific railroad line crossing the northern reaches, alongside scattered evidence of local resource extraction like the Gravel Pit and isolated Oil Well sites. The boundary between Motley Co and Dickens Co runs through the heart of the quadrangle, marking a rugged territory where water sources like Mexican Creek were vital for both cattle and early inhabitants.
