About this map

Running Water Draw and Callahan Draw wind through this West Texas landscape, cutting through the High Plains terrain on the border of Hale and Floyd Counties. The map reveals a highly developed agricultural and industrial grid during the late 1960s, defined by dozens of irrigation wells and a scattered network of rural infrastructure. Transportation and industry are centered on the Fort Worth and Denver railroad line in the southeast corner, accompanied by a substation and the nearby Arick Cem. Private aviation is represented by the Snead Landing Strip, while localized extraction is marked at a Gravel Pit. The map is particularly useful for observing how land was partitioned, with fine red dashed lines indicating selected fence lines across the open territory.
