1971 Map of Adobe Creek SE

About this map

The rugged Texas Panhandle topography is defined by the complex drainages of Reynolds Creek and its West Fork, where deeply dissected plains meet the high ranchlands of the early 1970s. This survey, conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Texas Water Development Board, documents a landscape dominated by the livestock industry and water management. Isolated ranching outposts like Morrison Ranch and another unnamed Ranch are scattered across the terrain, supported by a network of essential water sources including Sandhill Windmill, Highland Windmill, and Cake House Windmill. The border between Hutchinson Co and Roberts Co cuts through the western portion of the map, while a prominent Pipeline signifies the industrial energy infrastructure crossing the plains alongside natural features like White Deer Creek and several unnamed Springs.
