  • The Llano Estacado and Water Mike Harter
    Image courtesy of Mike Harter. The Llano Estacado and Water Mike Harter Mike Harter grew up in Lubbock and gained a Master’s degree in history from West Texas State in 1975. He taught for forty-seven years , mostly in Amarillo. He was also an avid student of history and geography of the Llano Estcado and the Southern Great Plains. he Texan-Santa Fe Expedition began in 1841, led by men who expected to take Tcontrol of New Mexico on behalf of the Republic of Texas and President Mirabeau B. Lamar. Its leaders apparently had no idea what they were about to get themselves into. The capital of New Mexico was no more than 400 miles away; the expedition left Austin with high hopes heading up to Waco villages and then veering northwestward. Once the force got beyond the Cross Timbers, it was in Terra Incognita, and the men were reduced to guessing about the correct way. They did not seem to know that the Llano Estacado even existed. Indeed, when they arrived at the Caprock Escarpment, one of their guides happily proclaimed they were close to Santa Fe. As events transpired, crossing the Llano Estacado broke the expedition and nearly destroyed it. The Texan-Santa Fe Expedition split up into two groups attempting to get beyond the Caprock, across the flatlands to find rescue Mike Harter 43 somewhere farther west. New Mexican troops easily rounded up the famished Texans and force-marched the survivors in chains southward to prison in Mexico. Strange as it seems to us today that our Texas forebearers had such little knowledge of the lands to the west they intended to traverse.

  • Plains Trail Region, This Daydream Landscape Is Reality, Where Cowboy Culture and Ranching Heritage Come to Life
    Land of the Frontier Spirit — owboys, cattle and wide-open spaces –– for many, it’s Texas of the imagination. In the Texas Plains Trail Region, this daydream landscape is reality, where cowboy culture and ranching heritage come to life. This 52-county southern stretch of the Great Plains has always attracted self-reliant folks — Native Americans, Spanish explorers, ranchers, farmers and oilmen — who lived off the land and left their mark behind. Archeological sites reveal 12,000-plus years of human occupation. Paleoindians used projectile points including Folsom and Clovis types to hunt ancient bison and mammoth. Apache tribes were here from the 16th century until after 1700, when Comanches arrived on Spanish mustangs, dominating life on the plains until the late 1800s. Naming the area Llano Estacado, or staked plains, Spanish conquistador Francisco Vásquez de Coronado arrived in 1541 searching for gold and silver. According to legend he marked his route across the treeless plains with stakes. Residents of Northern Mexico, in what is now New Mexico, hauled goods in oxcarts from ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Santa Fe to trade with the Comanches. Freighter Josiah Gregg dubbed the traders Comancheros. By the 1840s, Anglos traveled along the Santa Fe Trail in wagon trains, trading goods hauled between Fort Smith, Arkansas and Santa Fe. LIPSCOMB COUNTY HISTORICAL COMMISSION BACKGROUND PHOTO: WYMAN MEINZER By the 1870s, tensions climaxed between settlers and Native Americans. Commercial hunters increasingly killed huge numbers of buffalo for h histor the hide market, and U.S. troops arrived to patrol the Santa Fe Trail .

    2018 Strategic Water Supply Plan August 2018 2018 Strategic Water Supply Plan August 2018 Prepared for City Council Water Advisory Commission Daniel M. Pope, Mayor Carmon McCain, Chair Jeff Griffith, District 3 (Mayor Pro Tem) Jay House, Vice-Chair Juan A. Chadis, District 1 Dr. Melanie Barnes Shelia Patterson Harris, District 2 Jim Collins Steve Massengale, District 4 Celeste Hoehne Randy Christian, District 5 Ruth Schiermeyer Latrelle Joy, District 6 Tom Sell Max Tarbox Steve Verett ES Executive Summary The City of Lubbock (City) has actively planned for future water supplies through development of the City’s Strategic Water Supply Plan (SWSP). The SWSP provides a “road map” to guide the development and implementation of cost-effective and sustainable water supplies over the next 100 years. This 2018 SWSP includes multiple strategies to diversity the City’s water supply portfolio to minimize risk associated with variable climatic conditions while emphasizing conservation efforts to delay expensive water supply projects. This 2018 SWSP is a comprehensive update of the 2013 SWSP, and will be updated in the future as additional information about specific strategies becomes available or as conditions change. ES.1 Historic Water Supplies Historically, Lubbock’s water supplies have varied between groundwater and surface water. Some water supplies have been discontinued due to diminished water quality, reduction in the water availability, and/or more stringent drinking water regulations. Lubbock’s historic water supply usage is illustrated

  • The Salt Fork of the Red River and Prairie Dog Town Fork of the Red River Are the Two Major Rivers Within the Study Area
    The Salt Fork of the Red River and Prairie Dog Town Fork of the Red River are the two major rivers within the Study Area. Other rivers and streams include Elm Creek, Little Turkey Creek, Mulberry Creek, Salt Creek, Kent Creek, North Pease River, Middle Pease River, Quintague Creek, Callahan Draw and the White River. Figure 4-2 depicts watersheds in the Study Area and Figure 4-3 depicts major surface waterbodies in the Study Area. Numerous small perennial, intermittent and/or ephemeral unnamed tributaries to these streams also are found throughout the Study Area. Some of the larger lakes and reservoirs in the Study Area are Baylor Lake, Dry Salt Creek Brine Lake, Little Red River Brine Lake, Lake Childress, Alfred Sessions Lake, Club Lake, Bryants Lake, Lake Theo, and Hawkins Lake. The Study Area, particularly in portions of Briscoe, Floyd, Hale, and Lubbock Counties, also contains many unnamed perennial or seasonal ponds and playa lakes. Texas Water Quality Standards (Title 30 Texas Administrative Code [TAC] § 307), designate the site-specific uses of classified and unclassified waterbodies in Texas. In Oklahoma, beneficial uses are defined within Oklahoma Water Quality Standards (Title 785 Chapter 45). The designated site-specific or beneficial uses determine the water quality criteria that apply to each waterbody. Classified waterbodies in the Study Area within Texas include: the Salt Fork of the Red River, Lower Prairie Dog Town Fork of the Red River, North Pease River, and Middle Pease River, each of which have site-specific uses of primary contact recreation (i.e., activities that are presumed to involve a significant risk of ingestion of water, such as wading by children, swimming, water skiing, diving, tubing, surfing, kayaking, canoeing, and rafting) and high aquatic life.
