1962 Map of Wheeler SE

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

The North Fork Red River snakes through the center of this Texas Panhandle landscape, shaping a wide valley defined by its seasonal drainage patterns and braided channel. In the early 1960s, the region was characterized by an active Gas and Oil Field, with numerous Oil Wells and Gas Wells dotting the terrain between the river's path and local tributaries like Bronco Creek and Sand Creek. Infrastructure supporting this extraction economy is prominent, featuring several Pumping Stations and an extensive network of fencelines marking property boundaries across the undulating plains. The topography reveals a mix of industrial utility and natural watercourses, including the modest flow of Cole Creek and scattered Gravel Pits that suggest local material sourcing for the area's development during this mid-century period.
