About this map

Buffalo Gap National Grassland dominates the northwestern portion of this landscape, where the prairie meets the intricate drainages of the White River. The river creates a significant physical boundary, meandering sharply across the northern sections and fed by seasonal watercourses like Fifteen Cr and Long Cr. This terrain is defined by its drainage patterns, with the southern half of the sheet heavily dissected by the headwaters of Craven Cr. Human presence is marked primarily by rural transit routes such as Co Rd Ch 29 and Weta Rd, which navigate the high ground between the draws and river breaks. The map captures a moment of modern land management within the Jackson County plains, where established national grasslands intersect with local ranch roads.
