2019 Map of Blackwell SW

About this map

The boundary between Nolan Co and Coke Co bisects this stretch of the Texas ranching country, where a network of ephemeral drainage systems carves through the landscape. This 2019 survey documents the intricate topography surrounding Antelope Creek in the north and the southward-flowing Mountain Creek and Messbox Creek. The map shows a transition from the plateaus of the north toward more dissected terrain in the south. Transportation is defined by rural corridors such as FM 1170 and a series of county roads including Co RD 314 and Co RD 268, which provide access to the various canyons and draws. Named family routes like Hamilton Road and Ross Road indicate the established landholdings and property lines that have shaped this portion of West Texas for generations.
