1976 Map of Anton SW

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The High Plains of West Texas are captured in this 1976 orthophotograph, showcasing the vast agricultural grid of Hockley County. The town of Anton sits as the primary hub of the region, positioned along a major diagonal transportation corridor that cuts through the rectilinear cotton fields and playa lake depressions common to this landscape. Further northwest along the same rail and road alignment lies Bainer, a smaller point on the map that reflects the region's reliance on efficient transit for moving agricultural products. This map provides a distinct photographic perspective on the land use and irrigation patterns of the mid-1970s, revealing the precise geometry of rural life and the natural drainage features that break the otherwise uniform Texas plains.
