2010 Map of Upper White Lake

About this map

Upper White Lake and its neighboring Lower White Lake anchor this High Plains landscape in Bailey County, Texas. The area is defined by a sparse network of county roads, such as Co RD 1233 and Co RD 1272, which segment the terrain into a rigid grid typical of West Texas agricultural and ranching regions. Several ephemeral water bodies and depressions dot the sheet, including Baileyboro Lake to the north and the paired Upper Goose Lake and Lower Goose Lake to the east. The presence of Jack Young Dam and Enochs Pond indicates the ongoing management of water resources in this arid environment, where localized drainage patterns and small basins are critical landmarks for land use and navigation.
