1971 Map of Syndicate Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Syndicate Hills and the Bennett Sand Hills define this corner of the Texas Panhandle, where high plains topography is punctuated by essential water sources and ranching infrastructure. Surveyed in the early 1970s, the map reveals a landscape managed for cattle and rail transport, anchored by the McCrory Ranch in the central portion of the quadrangle. The density of named water features like Deadman Well, Valley Well, and Twin Mill emphasizes the critical role of groundwater in this arid environment. Near the southeast corner, the C R I & P railroad line cuts across the terrain, reflecting the area's connection to the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific network. A isolated depression near the center contains Mildred Lake, providing a rare surface water feature among the dunes and hills, while local ranching heritage is further documented through family-named sites such as North Summerour Well and Munn Well.
