USGS Topo · Published 1974About this map
The Texas and Pacific railroad corridor serves as the industrial backbone for this section of the Palo Pinto Mountains, connecting the established coal-mining and rail hubs of Strawn, Mingus, and Gordon. In the late 1950s, the landscape was a mix of energy extraction and remote rural community life, evidenced by the Metcalf Gap Oil Field to the north and numerous family burial grounds like Hutchins Cem and Davidson Cem.
