About this map

The Salt Fork Red River meanders across this High Plains landscape, carving a distinct drainage pattern through the agricultural grid of Armstrong County. This 2012 survey highlights the structured land division of the Texas Panhandle, where ranch roads and county thoroughfares like Alpha Rd, Bravo Rd, and Delta Rd follow rigid section lines. The terrain is characterized by numerous playa lakes and depressions, which are critical features for local hydrology and historical land use. Near the center of the sheet, the infrastructure of the Frontage Rd and FM-2161 provides modern transit corridors across the more ancient, winding path of the river. The area around Charlie reflects the sparse, rural nature of the county, where irrigation and ranching have long shaped the cultural geography of the Llano Estacado.
