About this map

Whiteflat anchors the northeastern portion of this Motley County landscape, situated where the high plains begin their descent into a complex network of draws and canyons. The Middle Pease River carves a significant course across the center, flanked by prominent elevations like Connally Peak and Boone Mtn. The terrain here is defined by drainage patterns that have shaped the local geography for generations, including the deep incision of Lost Canyon and the broad courses of Jesse James Draw and Shinnery Draw.

For those tracing family heritage in this part of Texas, the map identifies two distinct burial sites: Whiteflat Cem near the town center and the Old Whiteflat Cem further north. Water remains a vital element of this cattle-country environment, evidenced by scattered livestock infrastructure such as Cedar Tank and Hawk Hill Tank, alongside natural features like Jack Spray Lake and the reliably named Dripping Springs. A grid of county roads provides access across the varying elevations of Antelope Hill and the breaks of Salt Creek.
