USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
Agricultural water management and the infrastructure of the High Plains dominate this 1960s study of the South Plains region. The town of Sudan sits as the primary hub of activity, oriented along the Panhandle and Santa Fe railroad line. This diagonal rail corridor dictates the town's grid and connects it to the smaller community of Fairview to the northwest. Beyond the residential clusters, the landscape is defined by an intensive network of water wells, reflecting the era's heavy reliance on irrigation for cotton and grain farming.
