2012 Map of Dickens North

About this map

Mackenzie Peak stands as a prominent topographical feature in this northern portion of Dickens County, overseeing a landscape defined by an intricate network of drainage systems. The small community of Elton sits along the northern road corridors, while the town of Dickens occupies the southern edge of the sheet. The area's settlement history is marked by the presence of Amity Cem, located near the winding path of Washout Cr. This region of West Texas is characterized by its numerous intermittent waterways, including Little Croton Cr, Boggy Cr, and Croton Cr, which carve through the terrain. The inclusion of Dickens Spring highlights a vital local water source that has likely influenced the placement of early ranching and town developments in this arid environment.
