1954 Map of Dermott

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Kelly Snyder Oil Field dominates the southeastern quadrant of this Scurry County landscape, revealing an intensive industrial footprint defined by a dense grid of oil wells, tanks, and service roads. This energy production zone contrasts sharply with the winding, eroded terrain of the north and west, where Deep Creek and Mooar Draw carve intricate paths through the West Texas earth. Transportation history is etched into the land via the Panhandle and Santa Fe railroad line passing through Dermott, while a prominent Old Railroad Grade further west traces a defunct corridor of commerce. Local infrastructure is further detailed by a network of pipelines, scattered Caliche Pits, and a Landing Strip (Private), illustrating the mid-century transition from traditional ranching and rail to a petroleum-driven economy.
