1962 Map of Frog Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Double Mountain Fork Brazos River cuts a deep path through this portion of Stonewall County, creating a rugged geography marked by Devils Canyon and Frog Mountain. During the early 1960s, the landscape was defined by a mix of ranching operations and petroleum extraction, evidenced by the Letz Oil Field and numerous water features like Alkali Tank and Headquarters Tank. The Fort Worth and Denver railroad runs through the northern reaches, connecting these remote grazing lands to larger markets. For genealogists, the inclusion of the Rayner Cem and Old Glory Cem provides specific points of interest for tracing family history in the area. This map documents a period when local infrastructure was heavily influenced by the drainage basins and the expansion of oil exploration across the Texas plains.
