2018 Map of Whites Lake

About this map

Deep Red Creek and its various tributaries define the drainage patterns of this rural landscape on the border of Tillman and Cotton Counties. Deep Red Creek meanders through the southern half of the quadrangle, joined by the southeast-flowing Sanatag Creek and the eastern Dry Red Creek. This 2018 survey reveals a sparse settlement pattern dominated by a strictly gridded section-line road network, including corridors like Co RD n2480 and Co RD e1880. Local hydrology is marked by smaller impoundments such as Whites Lake and the 033006 Reservoir, which likely serve agricultural or livestock purposes for the surrounding farmsteads. The map documents the persistent agricultural character of the region, where the intersection of Tillman County and Cotton County remains a remote expanse of rolling terrain and seasonal waterways.
