2010 Map of Amburgey Ranch

About this map

Amburgey Ranch sits at the center of this Ector County landscape, defined by a sparse network of roads and the industrial presence of the Wheeler Oil Field. The terrain is marked by a distinctive infrastructure of named water-pumping sites, including Wheeler Windmills and Jeff Windmill, which speak to the area's agricultural and ranching reliance on groundwater in West Texas. These landmarks often serve as primary navigational points in an otherwise open country. The road system is dominated by straight-line segments such as S Wheeler Rd and Blockline Rd, reflecting the grid-based surveying typical of the Permian Basin. This survey preserves a specific moment in the rural development of the region, showing the intersection of traditional ranching life with the energy extraction operations that have shaped Ector County's modern history.
