2010 Map of Badger Lake

About this map

Kermit sits near the northwestern corner of this High Plains landscape, situated along the primary thoroughfare in a region defined by its vast, open agricultural and grazing land. The area is marked by numerous ephemeral basins, most notably Badger Lake, which provide critical drainage points in this semiarid environment. This 2010 survey illustrates a highly organized grid of rural infrastructure, with roads such as S Roosevelt Road 20 and S Roosevelt Road 24 segmenting the territory into large parcels. The pattern of development here reflects the enduring reliance on a systematic road network to connect remote settlements and ranching operations across Roosevelt County. Researchers can trace the layout of these numbered routes, including S Roosevelt Road AC and S Roosevelt Road AF, which form the backbone of local transit and land management.
