About this map

The Salt Fork Red River carves a deep, winding path through this portion of Collingsworth County, defining the local geography with its intricate drainage system. Small settlements like Lutie and Branson appear along the upland routes, providing vital connection points for the surrounding ranching and agricultural land. A notable cultural landmark is the Pan Fork (Summer Camp), situated along the riverbank near the confluence with Panther Creek. The map documents a landscape transitioning from the late 1950s into the early 1980s, noting changes in woodland cover and road improvements. Economic activity is visible through features such as the Gravel Pit, while the natural hydrology is dominated by numerous seasonal draws including Indian Creek, Cottonwood Creek, and Willow Creek that feed into the primary river valley.
