McClellan Creek and its many winding tributaries, including Hackberry Creek and Dry Sandy Creek, dominate this portion of the Texas Panhandle near the small settlement of Back. The landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of the Llano Estacado, where erosion has carved features like Saye Draw into the plains. Water management in this arid environment is evident at the R D Back Dam, which creates R D Back Lake to support local ranching and agriculture.
