2016 Map of Happy Hereford Ranch

About this map

Happy Hereford Ranch anchors the southern portion of this high plains landscape in Randall County, representing the long-standing ranching traditions of the Texas Panhandle. The terrain is characterized by the sudden elevation changes of the Llano Estacado's canyon systems, most notably around the waters of Buffalo Lake in the northwest corner. This 2016 survey documents a rural environment where large-scale land tracts are defined by a geometric grid of farm-to-market roads and local routes, including FM 168 and FM 1705. The map provides a clear look at the intersection of natural drainage features and human infrastructure, such as Jowell Rd and Haley Rd, which cut across the prairie to serve isolated ranching outposts and agricultural operations.
