1964 Map of Stratford 2 SE

About this map

Coldwater Creek carves a deep, winding path through the northern high plains of the Texas Panhandle, defining the landscape of this 1960s survey. This portion of Dallam County is characterized by its wide plateaus and the intricate drainage network feeding into the creek valley. The map reveals the vital importance of water management in this arid cattle-and-wheat country, as seen in the numerous Wells and a specific Cistern dotted across the sections. These infrastructure points, along with a solitary Drill Hole, suggest the ongoing search for and extraction of resources from the Ogallala Aquifer and the depths below the caprock. The lack of towns or railroads emphasizes the expansive, agricultural nature of the region during the mid-century period.
