Santa Rosa Lake dominates the central portion of this Wilbarger County landscape, with its shoreline and Spillway captured shortly after the reservoir was established. The map reveals a working ranching and industrial environment in the mid-1960s, characterized by the presence of the Santa Rosa Ranch and specialized outposts like Four Corners Cow Camp and Santa Rosa Pens. A lonely Grave stands on a ridge between Commanche Creek and Lillus Creek, offering a small but significant detail for local historians. In the northern reaches, the active Oil Field and numerous Oil Wells illustrate the region's energy economy, while D's Camp and Cedar Bluff Tank indicate the practical infrastructure needed to manage livestock and land in north-central Texas.
