1965 Map of Wasson

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Running Water Draw meanders across this High Plains landscape, defining the topography of Hale County during the mid-1960s. The map illustrates a specialized agricultural economy centered on cotton production, evidenced by the presence of the West Side Cotton Gin and the Heck Cotton Gin. Small railway-adjacent or road-junction settlements like Boone, Wasson, and Furguson serve as anchors for the surrounding rural territory. Industrial infrastructure is prominent near the rail lines, including a Chemical Plant and several Storage Bins. The map also captures modern utility developments in the form of a major Aqueduct and Pipeline crossing the plains, alongside traditional features such as a Gravel Pit and various water tanks. This survey provides a clear look at the transition from early ranching eras to a more mechanized, industrial-scale farming period.
