About this map

Mendota and the nearby Mendota Siding serve as the primary focus in this portion of the Texas Panhandle, situated along the drainage of Red Deer Creek. The landscape is defined by its intermittent watercourses and technical installations, such as the industrial Gas Plant located in the southwestern corner. Transportation and infrastructure are central to the layout, with ranch roads and names like Arlington and Midway indicating the rural network of Hemphill County.

Water management is evident through features like the Abraham Lake Dam and the confluence of several seasonal streams, including Simmons Creek and Major Creek. The presence of Washburn Arroyo further illustrates the varied drainage patterns typical of this region. This survey provides a precise look at the area's development before more recent topographical changes, documenting the specific locations of rural infrastructure and water sources essential to local ranching and industry.
