1963 Map of Babbs

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Otter Creek and its western branch dominate this landscape in southern Kiowa County during the early 1960s. The small settlement of Babbs sits at the center of the sheet, positioned along a major north-south transit corridor defined by the St Louis-San Francisco railway. The infrastructure of the era is evident in the transition from the Hobart Municipal Airport in the north to the Radio Tower Substation further south along the tracks. In the west, the winding course of Elk Creek carves through the terrain, passing near the prominent Camelback Mountain. This survey illustrates a rural Oklahoma economy at a time of early resource extraction, with active Oil Wells and a Gas Well scattered across the township, while the Hobart Country Club indicates the expansion of local social centers near the county seat.
