About this map

The Prairie Dog Town Fork Red River carves a deep course through this portion of Randall County, anchoring a landscape where residential communities and ranch lands meet. Modern settlements such as Lake Tanglewood and The Palisades are built into the winding canyon topography, while the smaller enclave of Timbercreek Canyon sits further west along the river bends. The map shows a clear distinction between the flat, grid-based development in the north near Haney and the complex, branching road networks required to navigate the local breaks.

Several recreational and transit sites are scattered across the terrain, including Camp Harrington and the private aviation facilities at Blue Sky Airfield and River Falls Airport. To the south, the Currie Ranch and Palo Duro Club Lake reflect the continued intersection of private land ownership and water management. Landmarks like Devils Kitchen suggest the more dramatic erosional features found along the Cedar Way Draw, providing a detailed view of the area's geological and social layout.
