2016 Map of Margaret

About this map

The Pease River defines the northern boundary of Foard County in this part of North Texas, carving a wide, braided path through the landscape. The small community of Margaret serves as a central point in an area dominated by cattle ranching and rural agriculture, reflected in the extensive network of county roads like Ranch Rd 3103 and N FM 98. Distinctive landforms such as Raggedy Mtn and Warrior Hollow provide notable elevation changes in an otherwise steady terrain of creek drainages. Hydrology is a prominent feature of the quadrangle, with Carroll Lake and the southeastern corner of Lake Copper Breaks providing essential water resources. These bodies of water, along with named tributaries like Raggedy Cr and Hackberry Cr, illustrate the critical relationship between water management and land use in this semi-arid region.
