1966 Map of Santa Rosa Lake NW

About this map

The rolling plains of the Texas Panhandle transition into a landscape shaped by ranching and resource extraction in this mid-1960s survey. Spanning the county line between Foard Co Wilbarger Co, the map highlights the utilitarian nature of the region through markers like Slay Camp and Hart Camp. The northern portion is dominated by the expansive Big Field, while the southern reaches are defined by the winding course of Beaver Creek. The presence of Iron Pens and Grain Elevators underscores the agricultural economy, providing specific points of interest for those researching the rural industrial footprint of North Texas. Drainage patterns are anchored by Paradise Creek, which carves through the northern terrain, and a lonely Gravel Pit indicates the localized quarrying activity essential for area infrastructure.
