1966 Map of Northwest Lake Kemp

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The rolling plains of North Texas are defined here by the winding drainages that feed the Lake Kemp reservoir, including Beaver Creek and South Beaver Creek in the north and the lower reaches of Indian Creek to the south. Surveyed in the mid-1960s, the landscape is primarily open ranchland, punctuated by the Indian Creek Pens, indicating the local livestock economy of the era. The terrain is a network of draws and seasonal watercourses such as Buck Creek and West Coffee Creek, flowing toward the reservoir. An Indefinite Boundary marks the division between Wilbarger and Baylor Counties through the center of the sheet. The map also captures smaller, distinct water features like Lost Lake and Fish Creek, providing a look at the hydrology of this rural region before modern development or landscape changes altered these drainage patterns.
