2010 Map of Capps Switch

About this map

North Palo Duro Creek winds through the heart of this Panhandle landscape, carving a natural drainage pattern across a region otherwise defined by the rigid geometry of the Texas land grid. In the southeastern portion of the quadrangle, the settlement of Capps Switch serves as a focal point for local transport and rural activity. The area is heavily marked by its agricultural and pastoral infrastructure, evidenced by an extensive network of secondary roads including W Craig Rd, Co Rd Bb, and Co Rd Cc. A notable landmark for local history and genealogy is Cemetery Rd, which points to the established community sites within Moore County. This 2010 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents the intersection of natural watercourses and the modern highway system, featuring major routes like Fm 1060 and Fm 281 that connect this rural territory to the wider region.
