About this map

Green Valley and the northern reaches of Denton anchor this landscape just as suburban expansion began to meet the large-scale water management projects of North Texas. The map illustrates a transitional geography where traditional ranching and aviation land uses coexist with major hydrological features. To the north, Ray Roberts Lake is held back by the Lake Ray Roberts Dam, while the southern portion of the quadrangle shows the marshy inlets of Lake Lewisville.

Aviation history is evident through multiple small airfields, including Windy Hill Airport, Warschun Ranch Airport, and Hartlee Field. These private and local strips, along with family-named landmarks like McCallum Lake Dam, provide a detailed record of the area's rural character before further development. The drainage patterns of Culp Branch and Clear Creek weave between established county roads like FM 2153 and FM 428, marking the historic property lines of Denton County.
