2012 Map of Fivemile Creek

About this map

Fivemile Creek cuts a north-south path through this portion of Borden County, defining a landscape shaped by intermittent drainage and rural ranch access. The map reveals a highly structured grid of private and county roads, including Miller Rd, Gray Rd, and Wicker Rd, which connect isolated homesteads across the Texas plains. A complex network of local waterways, such as Bull Creek and Crooked Creek, feed into the larger basins, illustrating the vital role of natural drainage in this arid environment. The presence of numerous numbered private roads like P-4210 and P-4181 suggests a landscape dominated by large landholdings and limited public thoroughfares, typical of the region's ranching heritage in the early 21st century.
