1962 Map of High Island

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The coastal salt dome of High Island rises above the surrounding wetlands in this 1962 survey of the Texas shoreline. Positioned where the Gulf of Mexico meets the Lower Marsh, this unique geological feature supports an intensive network of oil wells and a dense arrangement of infrastructure including a Water Tank and Radio Tower. To the west, the community of Gilchrist sits near Rollover Pass, a vital cut connecting the Gulf to Rollover Bay.
