1962 Map of Antelope Creek SE

About this map

Swenson Field occupies the lower half of this landscape, characterized by the intricate drainage systems of Throckmorton County during the early 1960s. The terrain is defined by a dense network of seasonal and permanent watercourses, including Antelope Creek, Wolf Creek, and Sulphur Creek, which carve through the open country. The presence of several Oil Well sites and a prominent Pipeline indicate the importance of the local petroleum industry in this era, while a dedicated Landing Strip suggests the necessity of aerial access to this rural Texas environment.
