2012 Map of Horse Creek North

About this map

The Canadian River cuts through the northern section of this Roberts County landscape, defining the local hydrology and ranching topography. The terrain is marked by an extensive network of drainage channels including Horse Cr and Home Ranch Cr, which flow toward the river through a region historically significant for large-scale Texas Panhandle ranching operations. Traces of this heritage are visible in the naming of features such as Pickett Ranch Cr and Three Corrals Cr, reflecting the functional layout of the land for cattle management. McMordie Lake provides a localized water source in the central-southern portion of the quadrangle. Transportation is limited to rural ranch routes like Payne Ranch Rd and N River Rd, which follow the natural contours of the river valley and creek basins.
