1968 Map of Optima Dam
USGS Topo · Published 1969About this map
North Canadian River and Coldwater Creek define the central landscape of this late-1960s survey, marking a period of significant hydrological change. The centerpiece of the map is the Optima Dam (Under Construction), a project designed to create the Optima Reservoir shown with its anticipated normal pool elevation. This engineering effort signaled a transition for the surrounding high plains of Grand Valley and Hackberry, where the landscape is densely dotted with gas wells and energy infrastructure.
