1962 Map of Smith Tank

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The White River Reservoir dominates this 1962 landscape, captured shortly after the completion of the White River Dam. This era of water management transformed the West Texas terrain where the White River meets tributaries like Sand Creek and Home Creek. The map provides a precise look at the transition from natural riverbed to a managed reservoir system, marking the exact high-water limits and the resulting shoreline. Beyond the water, the industrial footprint of the region is visible through various Quarries and the namesake Smith Tank. The sheet also documents critical political boundaries at the time, showing the meeting point of Crosby, Garza, Dickens, and Kent counties, making it a valuable resource for understanding land ownership and jurisdictional lines in the early 1960s.
