2016 Map of Five Wells Ranch

About this map

Five Wells Ranch centers this landscape in the high plains of West Texas, where a sparse network of ranch roads and ephemeral watercourses defines the terrain. The convergence of three distinct drainage systems—Mustang Draw, Seminole Draw, and Monument Draw—carves subtle relief into the flat Llano Estacado. These draws, while often dry, are critical geographical markers in Andrews County and traditionally indicate areas of subsurface water that sustained early ranching operations. The area is intersected by Ranch Rd 703, which runs diagonally across the quadrangle, connecting this remote ranching territory to the wider regional road network. For those tracing the evolution of large Texas landholdings or studying the hydrography of the Permian Basin, the map offers a detailed look at the 2016 layout of fences, wells, and local transit routes like Ne 9101 and Ne 8201.
