Usage examples of "ogallala".

Now, a few million years ago when the Rockies were as high as today's Himalayas, the Ogallala was a vast alluvial plain created by silt runoff from the Rockies to the west.

The town was a good ten miles or more west of the newly opened Ogallala cattle trail and so was seldom shot up by the rougher hands one tended to find on a long market drive.
