About this map

The Colorado River snakes through the coastal plains along the border of Wharton and Matagorda counties in this mid-century topographic survey. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of irrigation and industry, dominated by the sprawling infrastructure of the North Markham Oil Field and numerous segments of Abandoned Canal. These relics of early water management systems, likely tied to rice farming or previous agricultural ventures, crisscross the terrain alongside natural drainage features like Blue Creek and Dry Creek.
