1960 Map of Fairview

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The high plains of the Texas Panhandle near the border of Randall and Armstrong Counties appear here as a landscape of grid-aligned farmsteads and intermittent playa lakes. Centered on the settlement of Fairview, the area reflects a mid-century agricultural system defined by named operations like Valleyview Farm, Willow Valley Farm, and Clear Vue Farm. The terrain is marked by the erosion of the Caprock, most visible where Mulberry Creek and Skunk Hollow begin their descent, cutting through the otherwise level plateau. Roads like Antelope Road and Tumbleweed Road follow strict section lines, typical of the region's rectilinear surveying, while the presence of Butterfield and Fourway Farm indicates the scattered but organized distribution of rural residences across the Llano Estacado during the 1950s and 1960s.
