About this map

The Sulphur River carves a winding path across this landscape, defining a network of wetlands, sloughs, and oxbow lakes in the southern portion of Red River County. This environment is characterized by water features like Horseshoe Lake, Stout Lake, and Sanders Slough, which stand in contrast to the agricultural uplands further north. The small settlements of Cuthand and Pine Branch serve as the primary focal points of human activity, connected by a web of rural roads such as Farm Road 1487 and FM-910.

Drainage patterns are heavily influenced by several tributaries, including Cuthand Cr and Whiteoak Cr, which flow toward the river basin. Managed water resources are evident through the presence of Blackmon Farms Reservoir Number 3, reflecting the region's agricultural infrastructure. This survey captures a moment of modern rural Texas life, where family-named landmarks like Barnard Draw Lake and Turner Lake persist alongside a systematic grid of county roads and creek crossings.
