1976 Map of Meadow SW

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Meadow sits at the northern end of this mid-1970s orthophotoquad, serving as a concentrated hub of human settlement amidst the vast agricultural grid of the High Plains. The aerial imagery, captured by the U.S. Geological Survey in March 1976, reveals a landscape defined by circular pivot irrigation patterns and a strict rectangular road network. To the south, the irregular shoreline of Rich Lake breaks the geometric regularity of the terrain. This map provides a clear visual record of West Texas land use, showing the intersection of rail infrastructure and rural development before the expansion of modern irrigation techniques transformed the region's water table.
