1962 Map of Waka SW

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

Palo Duro Creek and its tributaries carve a deep, intricate drainage system through the Texas Panhandle in this 1962 topographical study. The landscape is defined by the extensive energy infrastructure of the High Plains, dominated by the Hansford North Gas and Oil Field, the Spearman North Gas and Oil Field, and the Hansford Gas and Oil Field. This survey captures the region during a peak era of petroleum production, showing the dense network of pipelines and wells that overlay the natural erosion patterns of the caprock. Near the southern edge of the sheet, the terrain transitions into the watershed of Horse Creek, where a local Quarry and scattered ranch improvements suggest the mixed industrial and agricultural utility of this Hansford County landscape.
