1963 Map of Steen Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Miers Wilson Gas Field defines the industrial footprint of this Sutton County landscape in the early 1960s. Family-held ranching operations, including the Gene Wallace Ranch, Libb Wallace Ranch, and Robert Pfluger Ranch, are distributed across the terrain, indicating a legacy of private land use and rural settlement patterns. The natural geography is characterized by seasonal water features like Steen Lake and Lost Lake, alongside the prominent winding path of Eightmile Draw. Mapping of infrastructure such as the Radio Tower, numerous Gas Well sites, and an extensive network of pipelines reveals the intersection of traditional cattle ranching with the expanding energy sector. Local transport relies on routes like Bond Road, while the topography is punctuated by many Gravel Pit operations and deep-cut features like Bull Hollow.
