1954 Map of Wright Patman Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Wright Patman Lake dominates the center of this landscape at the border of Bowie and Cass Counties, representing a significant mid-century modification of the Sulphur River drainage. The massive Wright Patman Dam and its adjacent Water Intake Tower regulate the reservoir, which submerged portions of the river valley while leaving higher elevations like Bells Island as prominent features. To the northwest, the town of Redwater sits along the St Louis Southwestern Railroad, serving as a focal point for inland settlement away from the new shoreline.
