1984 Map of Cowboy Springs

About this map

The Red River corridor defines this borderland landscape between Oklahoma and Texas, where the shifting riverbed creates an Indefinite Boundary between Tillman Co and its neighbors to the south. The terrain is a network of drainage systems, including the westward-flowing Adams Creek and China Creek, alongside several smaller tributaries like Cooper Creek. Human activity is centered on the natural namesake of Cowboy Springs and the small settlement of Suttle. The map reveals a mid-century industrial presence marked by numerous wells and an Oil Well, connected by a prominent Pipeline that cuts across the southern portion of the survey area. Infrastructure such as a Substa and Storage Bins further indicate the region's focus on resource extraction and agricultural storage near the Oklahoma-Texas state line.
