About this map

The Middle Pease River cuts through this portion of Motley County, creating a rugged landscape of draws and canyons characteristic of the Texas Panhandle's edge. The settlement of Whiteflat serves as the local anchor, supported by a network of rural roads such as Ranch Rd 2999 and Co Rd 112. For genealogists, the map identifies both the Whiteflat Cem and the Old Whiteflat Cem, offering precise locations for historical research.

Strategic water sources define the terrain, from Miller Springs and Jack Spray Lake to the aptly named Hawk Hill Tank. Prominent landmarks like Connally Peak, Antelope Hill, and Boone Mtn rise above the drainage systems of Jesse James Draw and Shinnery Draw. The presence of Lost Canyon and Chimney Cr suggests the erosive power that has shaped this ranching country, where topographic detail reveals the complex interplay between the rolling plains and the river's descent.
