1973 Map of Spearman NE

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The northern High Plains of the Texas Panhandle are defined here by a sparse, industrial landscape of energy extraction along the Hansford Co and Ochiltree Co line. Numerous Gas Wells and Oil Wells dot the terrain, connected by a network of pipelines and service roads that emphasize the importance of the local And Gas Field. This industrial activity is contrasted by the lone presence of the Black Cem, a small burial ground situated east of the primary gas field area. The topography is marked by small playas and depressions characteristic of this region, with the At & Sf railroad clipping the northwest corner, providing a vital transport link for the area's resources. The map captures a moment when the energy industry had thoroughly integrated into the rural agricultural fabric of these Panhandle counties.
