1968 Map of Sanders Hollow

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The South Pease River and Tongue River converge in this corner of the Texas panhandle, shaping a landscape defined by deep draws and ranching infrastructure. Mapping by the U.S.G.S. in the late 1960s captures a sprawling network of water-management features essential to the local cattle industry, from Sanders Hollow Windmill and Jobe Windmill to the County Line Tank on the border between Motley and Dickens counties. The central Sanders Hollow drainage dominates the topography, leading toward the Red Lake Ranch and its associated Red Lake Ranch Airfield. This survey documents a specific moment in West Texas land use where family-named landmarks like Mark Windmill and Steve Windmill served as vital geographic markers across the prairie, alongside natural features like Darden Can and the North Wichita River.
