About this map

Ackerly serves as the primary hub of this West Texas landscape, where the intersection of ranch roads and farm-to-market routes defines the local geography. The town's layout is closely tied to the transportation network, including Ranch Rd 1584 and Fm Road 2212-N, reflecting the region's agricultural and ranching foundations. A key local landmark, the Coleman Cattle Company Number 1 Airport, highlights the importance of private aviation in managing the expansive cattle operations of the area.

The natural drainage of the High Plains is evident through the winding paths of Wolf Creek, Glen Creek, and Rattlesnake Creek, which cut through the grid-like pattern of rural roads such as Soash Rd and NCR-13. For those tracing local history or family roots, Fairhaven Cemetery stands as a quiet coordinate south of the main settlement. The map captures a moment when traditional land use, marked by cattle company interests, exists alongside a modernizing system of county and ranch roads.
