2016 Map of Barton Corners

About this map

Barton Corners marks a focal point of intersection in the north Texas Panhandle, situated where farm-to-market and county roads cross the rolling drainage basins of Lipscomb County. The landscape is defined by a dense network of intermittent waterways and seasonal draws, including Wolf Cr and the deeply incised Paine Draw. This 2016 survey illustrates the modern ranching and agricultural grid, where long-established routes like FM 3260 and Co RD 6 navigate around the meandering courses of Buffalo Cr and Sand Cr. The presence of these specific named tributaries, such as Gilhula Cr and E Buffalo Cr, highlights the critical importance of water management and topography in this corner of the High Plains.
