2022 Map of Pitchfork Flats

About this map

Pitchfork Flats serves as the central landmark for this West Texas landscape in King County. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages and dramatic elevation changes, where the S Wichita River and N Croton Cr carve through the earth. Numerous named topographic features illustrate the local nomenclature of the region, including the prominent Dog Town Mtn and several deeply cut paths such as Cedar Point Canyon, Wall Canyon, and Harper Young Canyon. Grounded in ranching geography, the area is accessible by a series of local routes like Co RD 411 and Co RD 415 that navigate around landforms like Graves Hollow. This 2022 survey provides an exceptionally detailed record of the ephemeral watercourses and canyons that characterize this part of the Rolling Plains.
