2016 Map of Smith Tank

About this map

White River Lake dominates the upper landscape of this West Texas region, where the White River carves south through the meeting points of Crosby, Dickens, and Garza counties. The terrain is marked by the distinct escarpment of the Llano Estacado Rd, reflecting the transition from the high plains down toward the river basin. Tracing the water's path reveals several tributaries, including Davidson Cr and Sand Cr, which drain into the reservoir. A network of ranch and county roads, such as Comanche Trl and Wagon Rd, crisscrosses the high ground, while the eponymous Smith Tank sits further south near the river's winding course. This mapping shows the significant role of water management in a semi-arid landscape, evidenced by the reservoir and various named tanks and creeks like Home Cr that define the local topography and land use.
