Chisum Canyon and Sidle Canyon carve through the High Plains landscape of the Texas Panhandle along the border of Hartley and Oldham counties. This 2022 survey documents a sparsely settled ranching environment where water management is the primary marker of human activity. The map identifies numerous vital water sources, ranging from natural features like Chisum Spring to man-made infrastructure including West Bull Spring Tank, Little Forker Tank, and Red Tank. Drainage is defined by seasonal watercourses such as Horse Cr and Minneosa Cr, while the presence of Lake Windmill highlights the enduring reliance on groundwater and wind power in this arid region of the Llano Estacado.
