1965 Map of Stallwitz Lake NE

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

South Palo Duro Creek winds across this Moore County landscape, serving as the primary drainage for an area defined by the mid-century expansion of the Texas energy sector. While the terrain remains largely open range, the proliferation of Gas Wells and Oil Wells across the grid indicates the intensity of mineral extraction in the mid-1960s. The presence of a major Pipeline and scattered Gravel Pits further emphasizes an industrial landscape centered on natural resources rather than residential settlements. This survey, conducted using photogrammetric methods from 1962 aerial photography and 1965 planetable surveys, documents the transition of the High Plains into a highly managed industrial field where the natural meanders of the creek contrast with the straight lines of modern infrastructure.
