2016 Map of China Ranch

About this map

The high desert landscape of West Texas is marked here by the solitary China Ranch, situated just north of the county line. This 2016 survey captures the transition across the Winkler Co Ward Co boundary, where a sparse network of county roads like Co Rd 404 and Co Rd 306 provide the only significant infrastructure through the arid terrain. The map illustrates the characteristic isolation of the Permian Basin region, defined by its elevation contours and a landscape largely open and undeveloped, typical of the rural cattle and ranching country between the Pecos River and the Monahans Sandhills.
