2012 Map of Indian Peak

About this map

Indian Peak stands as a prominent landmark in this portion of Briscoe County, where the high plains begin their descent into the drainage systems of the Panhandle. The northern edge of the map is defined by the Prairie Dog Town Fork Red River, which collects water from a network of intermittent streams including Comanche Cr and Indian Cr. The landscape is largely defined by these erosional features, most notably Johnson Canyon in the northeast and Folley Park to the south. This 2012 survey illustrates a sparsely populated ranching or conservation environment, with human infrastructure limited to a handful of unpaved routes such as Co Road R and Co Road O, and water management points like Wild Horse Tank. The map effectively traces the transition from the flat tableland to the broken breaks along the E Fork Dinner Cr and W Fork Dinner Cr.
