1966 Map of Fields Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The Middle Pease River meanders through this portion of the Texas Panhandle, carving a complex network of drainages including Fields Canyon and Bar Canyon. The landscape is defined by the transition between high grazing flats like Leary Flat and Baines Flat and the river valley below. Much of the eastern portion of the sheet is dedicated to the Matador Wildlife Management Area, showing the land's conservation status as of the early 1980s. Scattered throughout the cattle country are critical water points for ranching operations, identified by distinct names such as the Richland Windmill, Lucky Knob Windmill, and New Corral Windmill. These landmarks, along with intermittent water features like Bitter Lake Creek and Turtle Hole Creek, illustrate the essential infrastructure required for survival and industry in this arid environment.
