About this map

Coyote Corner serves as the central junction for this corner of the Permian Basin, where the sparse West Texas landscape is defined by the infrastructure of the petroleum and ranching industries. The map reveals an extensive network of named windmills, including the West-Red Windmill, East Nine Windmill, and Five Section Windmill, which speak to the essential water management required for livestock operations at the Wyche Ranch and Cole Ranch.

Industrial activity is concentrated at the Andector Oil Field, which shares the terrain with traditional rangeland features like Sheep Pasture Rd. The presence of Bum Lake and its associated Bum Windmill highlight the rare surface water points in an otherwise arid expanse. This survey provides a clear view of the rural road grid, including Ranch Road 181, which connects the various family-named ranches and production sites across the territory.
