About this map

Fluvanna serves as the focal point of this West Texas landscape, where the intersection of ranching, rail history, and the petroleum industry is clearly mapped. The settlement sits near the Fluvanna Cem and an Old Railroad Grade, marking the evolution of transportation in Scurry County. The surrounding terrain is defined by the sharp breaks of Red Griffin Canyon and the winding courses of Griffin Creek and Sand Creek.

Extensive industrial activity is documented through the Fluvanna Oil Field and Dorward Oil Field, alongside several Claypits and a Radio Tower. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad crosses the northern portion of the quadrangle, illustrating the vital transit links that sustained these communities. Water management for the arid region is evidenced by the Jones Reservoir, a critical landmark for local land use during the late 1960s.
