1972 Map of Capps Switch

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Sherman Co Moore Co line divides this High Plains landscape, where the flat agricultural terrain is sharply interrupted by the deep, winding incisions of North Palo Duro Creek. The 1972 topography illustrates a region defined by energy extraction and transport, dominated by an extensive Oil and Gas Field networked with numerous Pipelines. At the heart of the southern half, the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad runs east-to-west, serving the small rural hub at Capps Switch. While the uplands are dotted with a high density of wells and several gas wells, the creek bed provides a distinct geological break, offering sites for Gravel Pits and providing the only significant natural relief in an otherwise industrial and agrarian expanse.
