1966 Map of Kalgary

About this map

The small settlement of Kalgary sits at a crossroads in the mid-1960s, marking the transition between the rolling high plains and the breaking canyons of the Texas Caprock. This survey captures a rural landscape defined by intricate drainage systems, where numerous waterways like McDonald Creek, Yankee Creek, and Davidson Creek carve through the terrain. The presence of a long Aqueduct cutting across the eastern and southern portions of the quadrangle highlights the critical infrastructure required for water management in this part of West Texas. Spanning the boundary of Crosby Co and Garza Co, the map reveals a sparsely populated ranching and agricultural environment. Scattered landmarks such as a Drill Hole and the elevation marker Bm 2504 provide specific points of interest for those studying the physical history of the region.
