2012 Map of Briscoe

About this map

The small communities of Briscoe and Gageby anchor this portion of the Texas Panhandle, where the landscape is defined by a series of water management projects and seasonal drainages. Modern infrastructure is evident in the presence of Soil Conservation Service Site 20 Reservoir and Soil Conservation Service Site 22 Reservoir, alongside Lake Fensterwald and Valley Springs Lakes. The map reveals a highly structured grid of rural county roads, such as Co Road A and Co Road D, which facilitate movement between these remote settlements and their agricultural lands. The drainage network is particularly detailed, showing the courses of Gageby Cr, Jenkins-Jones Cr, and Sweetwater Cr. The inclusion of Osburn Draw provides insight into the local topography, marking a distinct natural channel that contrasts with the surrounding engineered reservoirs.
