About this map

Rotten Hill stands as the primary landmark in this section of the Texas Panhandle, overlooking a complex network of ephemeral drainage systems. The landscape is defined by the sharp incisions of Sierrita de la Cruz Cr and the multi-branched formation known as Five Fingers. These geological features, along with Hard Draw, suggest a terrain of significant elevation changes and erosion, characteristic of the breaks near the Canadian River valley.

Mapping of the Oldham Co Potter Co boundary reveals a region largely devoid of dense settlement, with Locust St providing one of the few named navigational markers through the ranch land. The convergence of numerous creeks, including Wildorado Cr, Daniels Cr, and Goodman Cr, illustrates the hydrological pattern of the High Plains where seasonal runoff carves deep into the Caprock. This survey provides a precise record of the landforms and boundary lines as they existed in the early 2020s.
