2010 Map of Sourdough Creek SW

About this map

The rolling plains of Ochiltree County are defined by a network of drainage systems and rural transit routes in this northern Texas Panhandle study. The terrain is notably marked by the southward-flowing Jocks Creek, which carves a dendritic path across the landscape, eventually joined in the southeast by West Dugout Creek. This era of the landscape is characterized by a precise grid of county roads that facilitate the region's agricultural and energy-related movement. Significant thoroughfares like Fm 281 and Co Rd Bb anchor the northern section, while family-named routes such as McGarraugh Rd and Wilson Rd provide critical access to the more dissected creek bottoms. The map reveals the rural infrastructure of the 21st-century High Plains, where the intersection of natural watercourses and man-made county lines dictates the layout of the land.
