2019 Map of Spur

About this map

Spur serves as the primary hub of activity in this West Texas landscape, where the street grid of the town is bordered by the winding path of Duck Cr. This 2019 survey documents the transition between the organized residential blocks and the surrounding cattle-and-creek country. Local history is anchored by the Spur Cem just east of the town center and the Steele Hill Cem further south near the Steele Hills, markers of the area's long-term settlement. The terrain is defined by its drainage patterns, including Spade Draw and Wilson Draw, which move water toward the larger creek beds. Aviation is represented by Travis Field south of the main settlement, while infrastructure like the Soil Conservation Service Site 12 Reservoir points to modern efforts to manage the semi-arid environment's water resources.
