2019 Map of North of Red Cow Draw

About this map

Rita Blanca National Grassland dominates the southern reaches of this corner of Dallam County, reflecting the conservation of the shortgrass prairie after the Dust Bowl era. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Coldwater Cr, which cuts through the high plains to create distinct drainage patterns in an otherwise flat expanse. Transportation in the region relies on a sparse network of named tracks and lanes, such as Ben Tom Rd and Minnie Mack Ln, which serve the agricultural and grazing operations typical of the Texas Panhandle. The placement of Lost Camp Rd and E High Lonesome Ln suggests the isolation of the rural homesteads and ranching outposts that occupy this northernmost tip of the state.
