1970 Map of Yellowbank Creek

About this map

Arid grazing lands and water management infrastructure define this 1970 landscape in the high plains south of the Arkansas River. The territory is marked by a network of intermittent drainages like Yellowbank Creek and Mustang Creek, where ranching operations relied on an extensive system of man-made catchments and wells. Family-named landmarks such as the Altman Windmill, Weinegar Windmill, and Derringer Windmill indicate the vital role of groundwater extraction for livestock.
