About this map

Rita Blanca National Grassland dominates the southwestern portion of this Dallam County landscape, where the High Plains of the Texas Panhandle meet the drainage of Coldwater Cr. The map captures a transition between protected prairie and a network of agricultural roads, including Huber Rd and Decker Rd, that define the local ranching property lines. At the northern edge, Buffalo Springs provides a focal point for the terrain, marking a site of hydrological importance in an otherwise arid region.

Water features like Flater Lake and the Alkali Lakes illustrate the seasonal and salt-heavy nature of the local basins. The road network is particularly dense around Thompson Grove Ln and FM 296, providing clear documentation of the land-use patterns in the late 2010s. This survey serves as a precise record of the grassland boundaries and the rural infrastructure supporting this corner of the state.
