1965 Map of Whiteley

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Whiteley and Howard anchor this High Plains landscape in the mid-1960s, a region defined by agricultural expanse and a network of ephemeral water features. The Fort Worth and Denver railroad cuts a straight line through the northern half of the quadrangle, serving the small siding at Whiteley. The southern reaches are marked by the winding course of Quitaque Creek, which provides a sharp topographic contrast to the surrounding level terrain. An Indefinite Boundary runs through the center of the sheet, separating the jurisdictional reaches of Briscoe and Floyd Counties. The presence of a Quarry near the center of the map suggests localized industrial activity amidst the vast ranching and farming operations characteristic of the Texas Panhandle during this era.
