About this map

The High Plains of Terry County are defined here by a series of shallow depressions and ephemeral watercourses. In the late 1960s, this landscape supported a sparse settlement pattern centered around small hubs like Needmore and Wooldridge. The economy is clearly tied to the land, evidenced by a Cotton Gin and a Gravel Pit positioned near the basin of Lost Draw. Modern infrastructure, including a prominent Pipeline and multiple Substations, cuts across the grid-based road network, reflecting the region's energy development during this era.
