1972 Map of Follett SE

About this map

Wolf Creek and Mammoth Creek meander across this section of the Texas Panhandle, carving distinct drainage patterns into the high plains landscape of the early 1970s. The map illustrates a region defined by its energy infrastructure and agricultural boundaries, with numerous Gas Wells and Oil Wells peppered throughout the territory. Along the northern edge, the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line cuts across the terrain, serving as a primary transportation artery for the region. The boundary between Texas and Oklahoma is clearly marked on the eastern side, alongside the county line dividing Lipscomb County and Ellis County. This survey provides a precise record of the industrial footprint on the land, from a scattered Gravel Pit to various Drill Holes, reflecting the extraction-based economy that shaped this corner of the state during the era.
