About this map

Wayside serves as the primary community anchor on this High Plains landscape, situated atop the dramatic breaks of the Palo Duro Canyon. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the deeply incised drainage of the Prairie Dog Town Fork Red River, where the terrain transitions from flat agricultural fields into a network of canyons and points, including Indian Trail Point and Wilson Point.

A sparse network of rural roads, such as Wayside Rd and Xray Rd, connects isolated ranching operations and landmarks like the McNeill Ranch Airport. The drainage patterns of this arid region are clearly defined through features such as Leigh Arroyo, Old Home Draw, and Happy Draw, illustrating how water has shaped the Panhandle geology. This survey provides a precise look at the 21st-century configuration of these landholdings and natural landmarks.
