2019 Map of Lake June

About this map

Washita River and its various tributaries define the landscape of this Hemphill County quadrant, where the Dry Fork Washita River and Gageby Cr carve through the Texas Panhandle terrain. The area's water management is heavily influenced by the Soil Conservation Service, evidenced by several strategically placed impoundments like the Soil Conservation Service Site 14a Reservoir and Soil Conservation Service Site 28 Reservoir. These reservoirs, along with small bodies of water such as Lake June and Lake Cindy, provide essential catchment in an arid region historically prone to erosion. Local history is anchored by sites such as Elam Cemetery and Cataline Cem, while the inclusion of Jeff Puryear suggests specific land ownership or localized landmarks. The map also traces a network of farm-to-market roads, including FM 277 and FM 3303, which connect the rural properties and cattle ranching interests characteristic of the region.
