East Afton and Croton anchor this West Texas landscape, which is defined by a network of ranch roads and intermittent water sources. The terrain is marked by the winding courses of the S Wichita River and the Little Croton Cr, alongside numerous livestock watering points such as Duncan Tank and Wichita Tank. This 2012 survey illustrates the modern ranching infrastructure of Dickens County, where long stretches of Ranch Road 2470 and Ranch Road 265 connect isolated settlements and range land. Local drainages like Washout Creek and Boggy Cr illustrate the sparse but essential natural water network that has dictated settlement and land use in this part of the Rolling Plains.
