2019 Map of Waka SW

About this map

Palo Duro Lake dominates the upper reaches of this northern Texas landscape, its branching fingers reaching into the surrounding drainages of the High Plains. This 2019 survey of Hansford County illustrates a region defined by extensive drainage systems and agricultural access, where the intricate network of local roads such as CO RD J and CO RD 24 facilitate movement across the plateau. The terrain is marked by the distinct transition from flat upland fields to the carved ravines that feed into the central reservoir, reflecting the modern management of water resources in this part of the Panhandle. While the map is sparse on named settlements, the density of rural road identifiers and the expansive water feature provide a detailed record of contemporary land use and topographic character in the Waka SW area.
