2016 Map of Syndicate Hills

About this map

Syndicate Hills and the adjacent Bennett Sand Hills define the undulating topography of this portion of Hartley County. This high plains landscape is largely defined by its drainage and ranching infrastructure, where water is a critical resource for the local economy. Mildred Lake sits as a central water feature amidst the complex contouring of the sand hills. Transportation in this section of the Panhandle is facilitated by a grid of rural routes, primarily Middlewater Rd, which cuts across the southern portion of the quadrangle. Other arterial connections like Brown Rd and Co Rd 13 provide access through the open range, linking the scattered ranch sites and natural landmarks that characterize this sparsely populated region of North Texas.
