About this map

Mulberry Cr and its complex network of seasonal tributaries dominate this high plains landscape along the border of Armstrong and Donley Counties. The terrain is defined by deep erosion patterns and arroyos, including the prominent Buffalo Arroyo and Willow Arroyo, which carve through the ranchlands of the Texas Panhandle. Settlement is sparse, characterized by large territorial holdings such as the Sheldon Ranch and Roach Ranch.

Transportation follows the traditional grid of the region, with Co RD N and Ranch Rd 2362 providing access to these isolated properties. In the northeastern corner, the path of US Route 287 cuts across the drainage of Mc Cullum Cr, marking a primary transit corridor through a landscape otherwise shaped by watercourses like Deer Cr and Hackberry Cr. The map captures the specialized ranching economy and the natural hydrology of the Rolling Plains before these drainages reach the larger river systems to the east.
