1965 Map of Rock Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The High Plains of the Texas Panhandle are defined here by the Swisher Co Briscoe Co line, which divides this landscape of playa lakes and intermittent drainages. The topography is largely characterized by a series of depressions subject to controlled inundation, punctuating a vast agricultural and ranching expanse. A significant northern drainage feature, Rock Creek, cuts through the terrain, fed by a localized Spring and carving out the most varied elevation on the sheet. Human presence is sparse, centered around the settlement of Rock Creek and the small locality of Mercer. The infrastructure of the mid-1960s is represented by a small Landing Field and a power Substa, reflecting the era's reliance on localized aviation and the expanding rural electrical grid.
