About this map

Arkansas River carving through the steep Arkansas River Canyon defines the landscape of this Fremont County quadrangle. The small settlement of Texas Creek sits at a vital junction where the river meets Texas Creek, serving as a central point for the surrounding network of drainage gulches and high terrain. The topography is dominated by dramatic elevation changes, notably at Bull Ridge and the deep incision of Echo Canyon.

Modern infrastructure and local access are evident in the presence of Lowe Airstrip and a grid of secondary roads such as Shannon Rd and Co 69. This 2013 survey illustrates how transportation follows the river corridor, with Us-50 tracing the water's edge through the canyon. The map details numerous named drainages, from Five Point Gulch to Sawmill Gulch, highlighting the complex watershed that feeds into the Arkansas valley.
