1962 Map of Lelia Lake

To the north, the Salt Fork Red River and its tributaries, including Saddlers Creek, carve into the terrain, contrasting with the more industrial activity seen at several Gravel Pits near the rail line. The presence of a Jeep Trail in the northeast quadrant suggests the continued utility of the more remote ranching lands away from the primary highway and rail arteries, while West Lelia Lake Creek and East Lelia Lake Creek feed into the namesake lake that anchored the local community.
