1972 Map of Wallace Draw

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Middle Concho River winds through the southern reaches of this Irion County landscape, providing a critical water source in an otherwise arid West Texas environment. The terrain is defined by dramatic ephemeral drainages, most notably Wallace Draw and Dry Creek, which carve deep contours into the plateau. While much of the land remains open range, the presence of the Sugg Ranch headquarters near the river indicates the area's long-standing ranching heritage. Industrial development is visible through a network of Pipeline corridors and several Gravel Pits, alongside infrastructure like a Pumping Sta and a scattered Well. This 1972 survey records a moment when traditional land use met the expanding needs of energy and material transport, marked by isolated features such as a Drill Hole in the northern heights.
