2011 Map of Coldwater East

About this map

Coldwater Creek meanders across this northern Texas Panhandle landscape, defining the hydrology of a region where water sources like Aqua Fria Spring were historically vital for cattle and early settlement. The map reveals a grid-like pattern of rural development, dominated by long-distance routes and localized farm roads. Significant thoroughfares like FM-296 and W High Lonesome Ln cut across the plains, while names like School House Rd and Minnie Mack Ln hint at the personal histories and community infrastructure of Dallam County. This 2011 survey captures the area’s character as a managed agricultural and ranching territory, where the intersection of natural drainage and systematic road planning, including Smith Ln and Sunnyspot Ln, facilitates life in a sparse, high-plains environment.
