2010 Map of East Dry Creek

About this map

The Canadian River carves a broad path across this Roberts County landscape, creating a complex network of braided channels and sandbars characteristic of the Texas Panhandle. This 2010 survey highlights the hydrological features that dominate the region, including the confluence of Home Ranch Creek and Barton Creek with the main river valley. To the south, the topography is defined by the drainage of East Dry Creek, which feeds toward the substantial Jim Waterfield Lake. This reservoir and the Jim Waterfield Lake Dam represent significant water management infrastructure in an otherwise arid ranching environment. The local road network, including Quarter Horse Rd and N River Rd, follows the natural contours of the river valley, providing access to remote cattle ranching operations and family-owned lands throughout the quadrangle.
