2016 Map of Lusk

About this map

Lusk marks the central crossing in a landscape defined by the convergence of three Texas counties—Throckmorton, Shackelford, and Stephens. The terrain is characterized by the winding path of the Clear Fork, which snake through the southern half of the quadrangle, joined by tributaries like Brushy Br and Buck Br. This region's hydrological infrastructure is anchored by the Stevens Company Water Company Lake and the Lester Clark Reservoir, reflecting the industrial and agricultural water management needs of North Central Texas. A network of rural routes, including Lusk Rd and Ranch Rd, connects the scattered farmsteads across the undulating plains. To the north, the drainage systems of Givens Cr and Middle Kings Cr flow toward larger basins, illustrating the complex watershed patterns typical of this part of the Brazos River system.
