1937 Map of Cache
USGS Topo · Published 1937About this map
Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge dominates the northern landscape of this survey, where the rugged granite peaks of Mt Scott, Mt Sheridan, and Mt Roosevelt rise above the surrounding prairie. This 1930s snapshot by U.S. Geological Survey engineers shows a transitional era for the region, documenting the proposed site for Lake Thomas and the established resort character of Medicine Park. South of the mountains, the rural character of Comanche County is meticulously detailed with a dense network of one-room schoolhouses and country churches. Local history is preserved through the locations of Post Oak Sch, Pecan Sch, and Deyo Memorial Chapel, alongside rail sidings like Taupa Switch and Gardner Switch on the St Louis and San Francisco line, marking the era's agricultural transportation hubs.
