1976 Map of Memphis SW

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The confluence of the Prairie Dog Town Fork Red River and the Little Red River dominates this mid-1970s orthophotoquad in Hall County. Unlike traditional topographic maps, this aerial perspective reveals the complex, braided patterns of the riverbeds and the stark texture of the surrounding Texas Panhandle plains. The small settlement of Plaska is visible in the northeastern portion of the sheet, situated within a landscape of large-scale agricultural parcels and ranch lands. The drainage of Oaks Creek cuts through the northern fields, illustrating the local water management and natural erosion patterns that define this part of the Red River valley. The image provides a clear record of land use and road networks serving isolated farmsteads during a period of established industrial agriculture.
