About this map

Swenson serves as the central hub of this West Texas landscape, which is defined by a network of drainage systems and isolated peaks. The terrain is marked by significant topographical shifts, most notably at Keen Mountain and Ku Peak, while the water network is dominated by the winding course of Stinking Creek and its tributaries like Ku Creek.

Evidence of historical transit and industry is visible in the Old Railroad Grade cutting across the central sections, alongside scattered Oil Wells. For genealogists and local historians, the presence of the Shadle Cem and Aspermont Cem provides specific points of interest for family research, while the Landing Area and electrical Substa indicate the infrastructure supporting the local economy in the late 1960s.
