2019 Map of Lipan

About this map

Lipan and New Salem anchor this North Texas landscape at the meeting point of Hood, Erath, Palo Pinto, and Parker counties. The area is defined by the winding course of Kickapoo Creek and its many tributaries, including Dry Br Kickapoo Cr and Weaver Br. The terrain is marked by distinctive elevations like Potato Hill in the northeast and Double Mtn to the southwest, while the far northeastern corner reaches the banks of the Brazos River. Local family and community history is preserved at several rural burial grounds, including Landreth Cem, Hill Cem, and Evergreen Cem. A small industrial presence is noted via a Quarry near New Salem, though the map largely reflects a network of rural routes such as Old Salem Rd and Natty Flat Rd that link these scattered agricultural and residential homesteads.
