1971 Map of Tyrone

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Tyrone Flats and Adobe Flats define this stretch of the High Plains as it appeared in the early 1970s. The landscape is marked by the historical intersection of frontier transit and industrial infrastructure, where the Santa Fe Trail and the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad run nearly parallel through the center of the sheet. Small agricultural and transportation hubs like Tyrone and Simpson anchor the northern portion of the map, while water resources such as Simpson Lake, Gyurman Reservoir, and Browns Lake punctuate the arid terrain. The drainage of Van Bremer Arroyo cuts across the southern flats, showing the natural hydrology that shaped local ranching and settlement. Evidence of local industry is visible through multiple Gravel Pits and a significant Pipeline crossing the southeast, illustrating how the land was utilized for both transit and resource extraction during this era.
