2012 Map of Puente

About this map

Indian Ft Mesa stands as a prominent landmark in this Texas Panhandle landscape, where the Canadian River cuts through the High Plains. The area is defined by a network of established ranching operations, including the Cross Bar Ranch, Fuqua A Bar Ranch, and Fain Ranch, reflecting the enduring legacy of the regional cattle industry. The hydrology of the Potter County terrain is intricate, with numerous seasonal and perennial waterways such as John Ray Creek, Horse Creek, and Windmill Creek feeding into the river valley. In the eastern portion of the map, the settlement of Puente and the convergence of W Amarillo Creek and E Amarillo Creek suggest a pocket of more concentrated activity. This 2012 survey documents the contemporary rural infrastructure, including Western St, against a backdrop of traditional land use and drainage patterns that have shaped this portion of the Llano Estacado.
