1962 Map of Antelope Creek SE

About this map

Swenson Field dominates the southern portion of this landscape in Throckmorton County, where the Texas rangeland is marked by early-1960s industrial activity and cattle operations. The map documents a network of Oil Wells and a prominent Pipeline cutting across the terrain, reflecting the mid-century energy production that defined this region. Water management and drainage are central to the map's detail, with seasonal flows like Antelope Creek, Wolf Creek, and Sulphur Creek branching through the contours. A remote Landing Strip and various Drill Holes indicate the active exploration and transport needs of the era. The northeast corner reveals more densely wooded areas around Gray Back Creek and Horse Creek, providing a clear look at the contrast between the open flats and the drainage breaks of North Central Texas.
