2022 Map of Dick Moore Canyon

About this map

The Floyd Co Motley Co line bisects this Texas Panhandle landscape, where the high plains break into the complex drainage systems of the N Pease River. The northern portion is dominated by the dramatic topography of Dick Moore Canyon, which cuts deeply through the caprock. This area is characterized by seasonal watercourses and springs that have historically dictated land use in this arid region, including Miller Springs and Mott Camp Springs. A network of county roads, such as Co RD 160 and Co RD 303, provides access to the cattle country and canyons. The presence of several named creeks, such as Boggy Creek and Chimney Cr, illustrates the importance of riparian corridors for ranching operations along the boundary of these two counties.
