Texanna’s center stands about 670 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 580 ft to 870 ft, a difference of 290 ft: rolling country. The highest named summit within 15 miles is Brooken Mountain, about 1,120 ft, 11 miles southeast.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Boggy Formation (shale, sandstone), from the Carboniferous, 299 to 324 million years old.
The section below crosses 2 rock units mapped at the surface.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 47×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.
Shale, sandstone. Age: Carboniferous, 299 to 324 million years old. About 22 mi of the line.
Coarse-detrital, fine-detrital. Age: Pleistocene, less than 2.6 million years old. About 0.9 mi of the line.
From the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation (Horton and others, 2017), the states’ geologic maps joined at a common scale.
Heights from Copernicus GLO-90 (a surface model: it includes buildings and tree canopy); summits from USGS GNIS; rivers from USGS NHDPlus HR; rock from the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation.
A raindrop that lands in Texanna reaches the Gulf of America by way of the North Canadian, the Canadian, the Arkansas and the Mississippi: about 1,010 river miles.
Lakes on the way: Murray Lake and Ozark Lake.
600 miles of the trip are on the Mississippi.
Traced down the USGS NHDPlus V2.1 river network from the Census center point of Texanna; river miles along the main stem, rounded.
