2022 Map of Pond Creek NW

About this map

The N Fork Red River carves a broad valley through this section of the Texas Panhandle, defining a landscape of complex drainage systems and semi-arid terrain. This modern topographic survey highlights a network of ephemeral and perennial watercourses, including Sand Cr and Cantonment Cr, which feed into the river basin. The appearance of Franklin Lakes and Gething Lakes in the northeastern quadrant suggests localized catchments or developed water features within the ranchlands. Smaller tributaries like Red Mud Cr and Cabin Cr illustrate the intricate erosional patterns typical of the region. The map also documents the sparse but vital transport network, notably Ranch Rd 1321 and FM 1321, which provide the primary access to the remote ranching properties and the distinct geological feature of Stage Hollow.
