About this map

Boiling Spring serves as the focal point of this arid North Texas landscape, where the hydrography of Foard County is defined by the branching tributaries of the N Wichita River. The map reveals a complex network of seasonal and perennial watercourses, including the extensive reaches of Good Cr and the winding path of Little Good Cr. Man-made landmarks like Geneva Potts Lake highlight the intersection of ranching needs and the natural watershed.

Surface transportation in this era is characterized by a sparse grid of rural corridors such as Mc Adams Rd and several county routes like Co Rd-377. These roads connect isolated ranching tracts across a terrain carved by Blue Hole Cr. The layout of Ranch Road 654 and Ranch Road 2003 underscores the region's reliance on primary state-maintained cattle routes to bridge the distances between remote pastures and distant markets.
