About this map

The Canadian River carves a deep path through this Panhandle landscape, where high mesas and winding creek beds dictate the placement of ranching outposts. Cattle operations define the local geography, with the Fain Ranch and Cross Bar Ranch serving as focal points for the surrounding drainage systems. These ranches, along with the Fuqua A Bar Ranch to the south, represent the essential livestock economy of Potter County in the early 1950s. Water management is visibly critical, as evidenced by the numerous Windmill sites scattered across the breaks.
