Texas 256 west traverses rolling country often cut by tributaries of the
Prairie Dog Town Fork of Red River. It threads among the jumbled, broken
remnants of the High Plains, then ascends the Caprock in a spectacular drive
amid colorful cliffs and canyons. Nearby are Caprock Canyon State Park and home
of historic J.A. Ranch bison herd.
