About this map

Horse Creek and its tributary Horse Cr carve a deep, dendritic drainage system through the High Plains of the Texas Panhandle. This landscape in Hansford County is defined by the sharp contrast between the flat upland plateaus and the complex erosional breaks leading down to the creek beds. A grid of section-line roads, including Co RD J and Co RD 24, provides access to this rural ranching and farming territory, while Farm Rd 3214 and FM 760 serve as the primary connectors through the rugged topography. The map illustrates how human infrastructure adapts to the natural draws and ridges of the Horse Creek basin, showing the precise elevation contours and water-flow patterns essential for land management and local history research in this part of the northern Panhandle.
