2010 Map of Field SE

About this map

The High Plains of Curry County are defined by a rigorous grid of section-line roads and ephemeral watercourses in this 2010 topographic survey. Running Water Draw cuts through the northeast corner of the landscape, while Dead Horse Lake provides a rare low-lying catch basin in the southeastern quadrant. The area's agricultural organization is evident in the systematic naming of rural routes such as Curry Road AI, Curry Road AH, and County Rd Ad. These roads delineate the high-altitude flatlands, showing the persistent 20th-century rural infrastructure and the reliance on seasonal drainages in this semi-arid region. The map captures the interface between these man-made thoroughfares, including Cr 17 and Cr 23, and the natural geography of the Llano Estacado.
