2010 Map of White Flat

About this map

The arid high plains of Chaves County are defined here by a network of drainage features and remote ranching outposts in the early 21st century. The landscape is dominated by the Middle Arroyo, which winds through the northern and eastern portions of the map, supported by vital water sources like Big Joe Tank, Little Joe Tank, and Browns Lake. These infrastructure points illustrate the essential nature of water management for livestock in this environment. Scattered cattle operations, including the Middle Arroyo Ranch, White Flat Ranch, and Lowrey Ranch, serve as the primary human nodes connected by a sparse grid of roads such as County Rd-B029 and White Flat Rd. To the south, the terrain rises toward Cedar Hill, while the Zeufeldt Arroyo and Salt Creek manage runoff in the lower reaches of the quadrangle.
