1953 Map of Stinnett Station

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Stinnett Station and the neighboring Britain Ranch anchor this 1953 topographic survey of the Texas Panhandle landscape. The terrain is defined by the sharp transition from the level high plains down into the complex drainage systems of Bent Waters Canyon and Moore Creek. This transition reveals a land shaped by the constant search for water and resources, evidenced by numerous scattered Windmill sites and a Caliche Pit that hint at the local ranching and road-building requirements of the era. The presence of Sand Dunes near the southern boundary of the quadrangle suggests the influence of wind and arid conditions on the local geography. Surveyors established several vertical control points across the ridges, including VABM Bugby and VABM Lark, which provide precise elevations for the surrounding breaks and ravines feeding into Carson Creek.
