1961 Map of Buck Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Curry Oil Field and Neal Oil Field define the industrial character of this landscape south of Breckenridge in the early 1960s. The terrain is marked by prominent elevations like Spy Mountain and Buck Mountain, which overlook a network of drainage systems including Hog Branch and Gonzales Creek. An infrastructure of pipelines and an Old Railroad Grade illustrate the region's connection to petroleum extraction and historical transport. Local genealogy is anchored by the Hart Cem and Post Oak Cem, while the expansive Hubbard Creek Lake and Lake Daniel show the management of water resources in the West Central Texas Municipal Water District. The presence of the Stephens County Airport and the small settlements of Curry and South Hanlon suggest a sparsely populated but active economic corridor focused on energy and aviation.
