2016 Map of Birdwell Ranch

About this map

Birdwell Ranch stands as the primary namesake landmark in this corner of the High Plains, situated within a landscape defined by an extensive network of farm-to-market roads and county lines. The ephemeral hydrology of Blackwater Draw cuts across the northern reaches, a characteristic feature of the Llano Estacado's drainage patterns. This 2016 survey illustrates a highly structured rural grid, where transportation is facilitated by routes such as FM 1731 and FM 1760. The map documents the enduring ranching and agricultural character of Bailey County, recording the specific intersections and local corridors like Co RD 1058 and Co RD 1088 that connect isolated homesteads and ranching operations across the West Texas terrain.
