2012 Map of Lelia Lake

About this map

The Salt Fork Red River snakes through the northern reaches of this Donley County landscape, where the High Plains environment is defined by intermittent watercourses and scattered lake beds. The small community of Lelia Lake sits at the heart of a local transport network, served by a series of graded county roads and the thoroughfare of U.S. Route 287. To the west, the Smiley Johnson Municipal Airport/Bass Field serves the aviation needs of the area near the Clarendon vicinity. This area is characterized by its agricultural drainage patterns, notably W Lelia Lake Cr and E Lelia Lake Cr, which feed into several local basins such as Johnson Lake, Taylor Lakes, and Cattail Lake. These features reveal a rural Texas economy anchored by reliable water access and a established grid of section roads like CO Road T and Ranch Road 1260.
