About this map

The North Fork Red River carves a complex drainage system through this portion of Gray County, defining the local topography with its deeply etched tributaries. In the western section, the landscape transitions from these breaks into flatter plains marked by a grid of rural routes such as J Rd and K Rd. This area is home to the Green Acres Airfield, a private aviation landmark situated amidst the agricultural and ranching lands of the Texas Panhandle.

The eastern half of the map is dominated by the winding paths of Plum Cr and S Fork Grapevine Cr, which navigate the eroded breaks leading toward the river. Transportation in this era is facilitated by thoroughfares like Fm 2375 and Ranch Rd 749, connecting remote ranch lands to the broader region. The naming of smaller routes, such as Couts Thomas Rd and Thomas Rd, reflects the local family history and lineage inherent in the county's road development.
