2016 Map of Geddis Canyon NW

About this map

Oil Well Canyon and the winding course of Dry Cr define this high-relief terrain in Terrell County, illustrating the arid landscape typical of West Texas in 2016. The map documents a sparse network of ranching and utility roads that traverse the deep drainages and ridges, including Pakenham Rd and Poulter Rd. These routes provide essential access through the isolated canyons of the region, connecting remote ranchlands to larger thoroughfares like Ranch Rd 1217. The landscape is dominated by complex topographical features, where seasonal water flow in the dry creeks has carved intricate patterns into the plateau. This record serves as a detailed study of the modern transportation and hydrographic conditions in a part of Texas where human infrastructure remains deeply influenced by the physical geography.
