2016 Map of Lake Wichita

About this map

Lake Wichita and its surrounding suburbs dominate this transition between urban Wichita Falls and the southern ranchlands of Archer County. This period of the mid-2010s shows significant residential expansion in Lakeside City and Allendale, where modern street grids contrast with the older irrigation infrastructure of the Call Field Canal and C E Lateral. The landscape is dotted with several notable burial grounds, including the historic Bowman Cem near the lake's southern shore and a cluster of cemeteries to the north, such as Crestview Cem and Rosemont Cem. Local aviation and recreation are represented by the Tom Danaher Airport and the sprawling Crestview Memorial Park, while the hydrology of the area is defined by the Holliday Cr drainage and several managed water bodies like Sikes Lake.
