1985 Map of Cotton Center

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Cotton Center anchors this mid-1980s survey of the High Plains, characterized by a dense network of water wells that speak to the intense agricultural development of the Texas Panhandle. The landscape is defined by its subtle drainage patterns, most notably the winding paths of Crawfish Draw in the north and Blackwater Draw to the southwest. These ephemeral stream beds are the primary topographical features in an otherwise meticulously partitioned landscape of section lines and access roads. Infrastructure like the Sub-Station and a prominent Radio Tower serve the small community, while the staggering number of points marked as Well reflects the critical reliance on groundwater to sustain the region's cotton and grain production during this era.
