1966 Map of Natural Dam Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The salt lake basins of the Permian Basin dominate this landscape along the border of Martin and Howard counties. Highlighting the saline hydrology of the region, Natural Dam Lake (Salt) and Red Lake (Salt) are fed by a network of seasonal drainages including Sulphur Springs Draw and Calf Creek. The settlement of Morita sits near the eastern edge of the survey, positioned where the terrain transitions toward the draws. This mid-1960s perspective captures the industrial infrastructure of the Texas oil patch, with numerous Oil Wells and a complex system of Pipelines and an Aqueduct crossing the dry plains. Notable landmarks for local history include Indian Point and the cattle-rearing infrastructure found at Calf Tank and Red Tank.
