1968 Map of East Afton

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The small farming community of East Afton and the neighboring settlement of Croton anchor this West Texas landscape during a period of late-century revision. The terrain is defined by the headwaters of the South Wichita River and the winding course of Little Croton Creek, which carve through the plains. The map reflects a rural economy dependent on water management, evidenced by features like Duncan Tank and Wichita Tank, alongside several gravel pits that hint at local road-building and infrastructure maintenance. A Landing Strip in the northeast quadrant suggests the increasing role of private aviation in managing these expansive ranching and agricultural lands. Originally surveyed in 1968, this edition incorporates 1979 revisions that document subtle changes in field patterns and local landmarks like Washout Creek and the Riley area.
