1971 Map of Hockley Mound

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Hockley Mound rises as a distinct topographical landmark above the surrounding prairie, marking a high point in the flat coastal plains of Southeast Texas. This early 1970s survey captures a landscape defined by traditional ranching and a growing petroleum economy, specifically within the Katy Oil and Gas Field shown in the southern portion of the sheet. Numerous gas wells and a network of pipelines punctuate the drainage basins of Snake Creek, Live Oak Creek, and Cypress Creek.
