2019 Map of Humdinger Spring

About this map

Humdinger Spring and the surrounding rangeland of the Texas Panhandle define this landscape along the border of Hartley and Oldham counties. The area is dominated by the deeply incised drainage systems of the Canadian River, which flows through the southern portion of the sheet. Numerous seasonal water sources and livestock tanks, such as North Reeves Tank, Reeves Tank, and Cottonwood Tank, illustrate the essential infrastructure for ranching in this arid environment. Navigation across the plateau is limited to private ranch roads like Griffin Ranch Rd and Pvt Ranch Rd, which follow the higher ground between the rugged breaks of George Canyon and the prominent Catfish Bend. Springs like Pedarosa Spring and Antelope Spring Cr serve as vital landmarks in a terrain characterized by complex erosional patterns and intermittent creek beds.
