About this map

Rita Blanca Creek cuts through the high plains of the Texas Panhandle, carving a network of drainage channels that define the local topography. This portion of Hartley County is characterized by large-scale land divisions and an sparse road network including Ranch Rd 998, Bradshaw, and Co Rd N. The landscape is shaped by the movement of water through seasonal drainage systems like Cottonwood Draw and Cramer Creek, which feed into larger arteries like Punta de Agua Creek. These features illustrate the drainage patterns essential to cattle ranching operations in this arid region, where the terrain transitions from flat mesas into deeply etched draws. The map provides a clear look at the relationship between the few established roadways and the natural contours of the land in a relatively undeveloped corner of the state.
