2016 Map of Lake Creek

About this map

The North Fork Red River meanders across the northern portion of this landscape, marking the jagged boundaries where Greer, Beckham, and Kiowa counties meet. This rural area is defined by a rigid grid of country roads, including E1340 Rd and N1990 Rd, which connect isolated homesteads and agricultural plots. The small community of Lake Creek serves as a local anchor, situated near the headwaters of Lake Cr. To the south, the terrain rises abruptly into the Granite Mountains, providing a stark topographic contrast to the surrounding plains. Genealogists may find interest in the Pleasant Valley Cem, a key landmark for tracing family roots in this corner of Greer County. The presence of Old State Hwy 6 on the eastern edge provides a glimpse into the earlier transportation network of the region.
