1960 Map of Buffalo Stadium

About this map

Spring Draw snakes through this Panhandle landscape, illustrating the hydrological patterns of Randall County before extensive modern development. The map highlights the intersection of transportation and recreation at the edge of the plains, where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line runs north toward Haney. A distinct social landscape is visible through the Canyon City Club and Palo Duro Club, which sit near the confluence of Tierra Blanca Creek and Palo Duro Creek. This 1960s survey provides a clear view of the area's rural character, punctuated by numerous well sites and local landmarks like Buffalo Stadium and the Memory Gardens cemetery. The terrain drops sharply toward the Prairie Dog Town Fork Red River, revealing the beginning of the canyon systems that define this region of Texas.
