2012 Map of Canyon SE

About this map

The High Plains landscape of Randall County is defined by a rigid grid of rural corridors and the passage of I 27, which bisects the territory from north to south. This area, surveyed by the U.S. Geological Survey in 2012, illustrates the intersection of modern transportation infrastructure and the natural drainage of the Llano Estacado. The ephemeral path of S Cita Cr cuts across the geometric road network, providing a rare topographical variation in an otherwise planar expanse of agricultural and ranch land. Local connectivity is maintained through named thoroughfares such as Lawrence Rd and Dowlen Rd, while regional access is facilitated by Ranch Road 1705 and W Fm 285. The map serves as a detailed record of the township and range survey system, where section lines are solidified into long, straight roads like Osage St and Pipeline Rd.
