1971 Map of Enid

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The settlement of Enid is situated along the east-west rail line that cuts through this arid landscape in the early 1970s. This orthophotomap provides a clear aerial perspective on the relationship between water and habitation in the desert, showing the intricate network of dry washes that drain the Palo Verde terrain. To the east, a stark transition occurs where the natural drainage patterns of the desert floor give way to the rigid, geometric grid of irrigated agricultural fields. This distinct boundary highlights the mid-century expansion of cultivation into the Arizona desert, made possible by managed water systems that contrast sharply with the alluvial fans and scattered brush shown elsewhere on the sheet.
