1969 Map of Wild Horse Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Isolated family outposts like Ward Ranch and Skelton Ranch define the settlement pattern of this West Texas landscape during the late 1960s. The terrain is deeply incised by a network of ephemeral watercourses including Wild Horse Canyon, Little Shaggy Canyon, and Taylor Box Draw, which channel runoff through the limestone plateaus. Evidence of the region’s economic reliance on ranching and energy extraction is scattered throughout the draws, noted by several Gas Well locations, a Sulphur Windmill, and a remote Landing Strip used for transportation across the expansive distances.
