2016 Map of Plaska

About this map

Prairie Dog Town Fork Red River dominates the central landscape of this Hall County survey, where the river's wide, braided channels cut through the Texas Panhandle. The small community of Plaska sits along the northern edge of this drainage system, connected to the surrounding ranching and farming country by a network of farm-to-market roads including FM 1041 and FM 2472. To the south, the Little Red River flows parallel to its larger counterpart, creating a complex hydrologic corridor defined by shifting sands and intermittent streams. Smaller drainages like Oaks Cr, Bullard Cr, and the appropriately named Buzzard Draw carve into the terrain, illustrating the erosive forces at work in this part of the state. The layout of roads like Co RD 14 and Co RD 19 reflects the rigid section-line grid typical of the region's agricultural development.
