About this map

Northfield sits at the intersection of local ranch roads near the tri-county corner of Motley, Hall, and Cottle counties. This portion of the Texas Panhandle is defined by its dramatic drainage networks and canyon systems, including Housetop Canyon, Price Canyon, and Poker Canyon. The topographic detail reveals the intricate erosion patterns of the N Pease River and its tributaries such as Joe Lake Cr and Bitter Lake Cr.

Researchers interested in the genealogy of this rural landscape will find the Northfield Cem situated just west of the settlement center. The map documents the local transit network as it existed in the mid-2010s, tracing routes like FM 94 and Ranch Rd 94 as they navigate the breaks and high plains. The transition from the rugged canyonlands to the more level terrain around Running Water Cr highlights the region's geographical character.
