2019 Map of Collins Creek

About this map

Lambshead Cr and its various tributaries define the drainage of this north-central Texas landscape, which straddles the boundary between Throckmorton and Shackelford counties. This area is characterized by vast private ranch holdings, evidenced by the presence of Matthews Ranch Rd and a network of named private and county routes like Watt Rd and Co Rd 292. The geography is centered on the water management essential for livestock in this region, including Lambshead Tank and the larger Clear Fork in the northeast corner. While largely uninhabited by dense settlements, the map documents the intricate network of ranch roads and small drainage features such as Jackson Br, Reynolds Br, and Walnut Cr that have supported the local cattle industry for generations.
