2010 Map of Folley

About this map

Folley serves as a central point in this rural Motley County landscape, where the flat plains of the Texas Panhandle are carved by an intricate network of waterways. The southern portion of the quadrangle is defined by the wandering path of Quitaque Creek, which is joined by several smaller tributaries as it moves across the territory. To the north, Kent Creek and Turkey Creek drain the open country, illustrating the vital role of water management in this agricultural region. Evidence of mid-century infrastructure is found at the Soil Conservation Service Site 7 Reservoir, held by the Soil Conservation Service Site 7 Dam. This network of ranch roads, such as Ranch Rd 2733 and Ranch Rd 599, connects isolated farmsteads and grazing lands, reflecting a late 20th-century landscape dedicated to livestock and large-scale land conservation efforts.
