1966 Map of South Plains

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The settlement of South Plains sits atop the high Caprock escarpment, a landscape defined by its agricultural utility and the infrastructure of the Southern Plains. This mid-1960s survey by the Geological Survey and the Texas Water Development Board illustrates a plateau heavily modified for irrigation and industry. The presence of numerous Well sites and the Cedar Hill Cotton Gin highlights the area's reliance on groundwater and its role in the regional cotton economy.
