2022 Map of Lutie

About this map

Lutie and Aberdeen serve as the primary focal points of this portion of Collingsworth County, where the landscape is defined by the dendritic drainage patterns of the Red River watershed. The area is characterized by a network of intermittent streams and springs, most notably Wolf Creek Springs which feeds into the larger Wolf Creek. This transition from the High Plains into the rolling breaks of North Texas is evidenced by the numerous named drainages like Elm Cr, Corral Cr, and Indian Cr. The human imprint on the land follows a rigid section-line grid of rural routes, including FM 1439 and FM 1036, which intersect at these small agricultural hubs. This modern survey illustrates how local transportation and small-scale ranching continue to rely on the natural geography established by these seasonal waterways.
