1965 Map of Leeper Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Leeper Creek and its numerous tributaries carve a complex drainage system across the divide of Shackelford and Callahan counties in West Texas. This mid-1960s landscape is defined by its industrial activity, notably the scattered Oil Wells and an individual Oil Well found throughout the rugged breaks. The map captures a moment of active resource extraction, where heavy machinery and drilling operations shared the land with traditional ranching interests, indicated by the presence of a Quarry and a network of high-pressure pipelines cutting across the county line. Flowing north and east, the Salt Prong Hubbard Creek and Long Creek dictate the local topography, while smaller features like Deadman Draw and Spring Creek suggest the seasonal hydrology of this cattle-and-oil country.
