1970 Map of Saragosa NW

About this map

The agricultural and industrial landscape of western Texas is documented here through a dense network of water management and extraction features. A solitary Cotton Gin and nearby Water Tank serve as focal points for the local ranching or farming economy, while the presence of a Landing Strip suggests the necessity of aerial access in this expansive terrain. The drainage patterns are defined by the winding course of Ninemile Draw in the northwest and Cherry Creek to the southeast, illustrating how seasonal water flow dictates the placement of infrastructure.
