About this map

Paloduro sits at the center of this topographical landscape, where the flat plains of the Texas Panhandle give way to a complex network of canyons and peaks. This 2022 survey captures a transition in terrain, marked by prominent landmarks like Mitchell Peak and the high vantage of Koogle Jump-Off. The drainage system is particularly well-defined, showing how West Fork Cottonwood Creek and Boggy Cr have carved through the earth over time.

The map reveals the sparse infrastructure characteristic of Armstrong County, with routes like Co RD 25 and Uniform RD providing access to this remote cattle country. Researchers and land owners can trace the seasonal watercourses that define local life, from Battle Cr to the southern reaches of Water Canyon. Notable geological transitions are signaled by features such as Wagon Wheel Gap, offering a clear view of the natural corridors used for navigation across this broken country.
