1968 Map of Tule Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Tule Lake serves as a focal point for this 1968 landscape in Swisher County, where the plains are defined by the convergence of the North Tule Draw and Middle Tule Draw. The terrain here is punctuated by an extensive network of wells, reflecting the region's reliance on groundwater for agriculture and livestock. Near the western edge, the eastern outskirts of Tulia appear, showing a transition from the structured street grid to specialized recreational spaces like the Rodeo Ground, Athletic Field, and a Golf Course along the water's edge. Downstream, Tule Creek winds eastward toward the small settlement of Shafer, passing several Gravel Pit operations and a Radio Tower. The presence of a Pipeline and a Gaging Sta further illustrates the mid-century infrastructure managing the resources of the Texas Panhandle.
