Wolf Creek (Texas And Oklahoma)
Wolf Creek is a tributary of the North Canadian River in Texas and Oklahoma in the United States. It begins in Ochiltree County, Texas, and flows generally westward and northwestward through Lipscomb and Ellis counties into Woodward County, Oklahoma, where it joins the Beaver River to form the North Canadian River. The creek drains an area of .U.S. Geological Survey. National Hydrography Dataset, area data covering Wolf Creek watershed (8-digit Hydrologic Unit Codes 11100202 and 11100203), viewed iThe National Map accessed 2019-09-23. The creek is dammed in Woodward County to form Fort Supply Lake.

Hydrologic Unit Code
A hydrological code or hydrologic unit code is a sequence of numbers or letters (a ''geocode'') that identify a hydrological unit or feature, such as a river, river reach, lake, or area like a drainage basin (also called watershed in North America) or catchment. One system, developed by Strahler, known as the Strahler stream order, ranks streams based on a hierarchy of tributaries. Each segment of a stream or river within a river network is treated as a node in a tree, with the next segment downstream as its parent. When two first-order streams come together, they form a second-order stream. When two second-order streams come together, they form a third-order stream, and so on. Another example is the system of assigning IDs to watersheds devised by Otto Pfafstetter, known as the Pfafstetter Coding System or the Pfafstetter System. Drainage areas are delineated in a hierarchical fashion, with "level 1" watersheds at continental scales, subdivided into smaller level 2 watersheds, ...

Rivers Of Lipscomb County, Texas
A river is a natural flowing watercourse, usually freshwater, flowing towards an ocean, sea, lake or another river. In some cases, a river flows into the ground and becomes dry at the end of its course without reaching another body of water. Small rivers can be referred to using names such as creek, brook, rivulet, and rill. There are no official definitions for the generic term river as applied to geographic features, although in some countries or communities a stream is defined by its size. Many names for small rivers are specific to geographic location; examples are "run" in some parts of the United States, " burn" in Scotland and northeast England, and "beck" in northern England. Sometimes a river is defined as being larger than a creek, but not always: the language is vague. Rivers are part of the water cycle. Water generally collects in a river from precipitation through a drainage basin from surface runoff and other sources such as groundwater recharge, springs, ...
