1962 Map of Griffin Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Griffin Ranch and its satellite operations, Griffin North Ranch and Griffin East Ranch, define the settlement patterns of this ranching landscape in Donley County. The terrain is characterized by the erosive drainages flowing south toward the Salt Fork Red River, which cuts across the southern portion of the quadrangle. Significant water sources for livestock and local habitation are noted through labels for Spring and Springs found along the creek beds. Transport in the early 1960s was limited, with a prominent Jeep Trail winding through the western hills. The map also records Mc Murtry and several named waterways such as Saddlers Creek and Turkey Creek, which reveal the historical importance of water access in this arid part of the Texas Panhandle.
