1962 Map of Green Mountain

About this map

The Colorado River winds through the northern portion of this Coke County landscape, carving a path through terrain marked by sharp elevation changes and deep draws. By the early 1960s, the region’s economic character was defined by a mix of ranching and petroleum extraction, evidenced by the South Lyday Oil Field and scattered Oil Wells. The interior is crisscrossed by seasonal waterways like Rough Creek and Bitter Creek, which flow toward the river between prominent landmarks such as Shaggy Peak. Social life in this rural stretch centered on small hubs like the Green Mountain Community Center and Pecan Ch, while family history is rooted at the Terry Cem located near a local Spring. This survey captures the transition of the West Texas landscape as it balanced traditional land use with the growing footprint of the energy industry.
