1985 Map of Augur Creek

About this map

Red River silt and sandbars define this borderlands landscape where the Oklahoma-Texas state line follows the winding river channel. The mid-1980s terrain is marked by the confluence of several tributaries, including Augur Creek, China Creek, and Curtis Creek, which cut through the low bluffs of the northern bank. Near a sharp bend in the river, the historic Fort Augur (Site) stands as a marker of 19th-century frontier history in Carr township. To the north, the small settlement of Loveland sits amidst a grid of section lines and rural wells, illustrating the agricultural and resource extraction character of Tillman County. The map clearly delineates the administrative transition between Stephens and Carr, providing a precise view of the geographic boundaries that shaped this part of the Red River valley.
