2019 Map of Alibates Ranch

About this map

The Canadian River cuts through the high plains of the Texas Panhandle, creating a complex landscape of drainages and mesas in Potter County. This area is dominated by the Lake Meredith National Recreation Area, where the dammed waters of the river fill deep canyons like Mcbride Canyon. The geography reflects a long history of human presence, from the ancient stone resources protected at the Alibates Flint Quarries National Monument to the namesake Alibates Ranch. Significant tributaries including Plum Creek, Mullinaw Creek, and Alibates Creek carve into the plateau, while the Devils Canyon Trail provides access to the broken terrain overlooking the reservoir. High-plains ranching roads like Cas Johnson Rd and Alibates Rd connect the isolated ranching outposts and recreational sites across this arid landscape.
