2016 Map of Hester Ranch

About this map

Hester Ranch stands as a focal point in this portion of the Texas Panhandle, situated within a vast grid of rural roads named for international cities and countries. The landscape is defined by the ephemeral waters of Yellow House Draw, which carves a path through the plains near Gordon Cobb Lake. This 2016 survey illustrates the organized agricultural layout typical of Hockley County, where roads such as India Rd, Greece, and Canada Rd create a geometric framework for local land use. This road naming convention provides a distinctive spatial identity to the area, assisting researchers in localizing property boundaries and historical land tracts. The presence of Fm 2306 and N Fm 1490 anchors the transportation network, connecting these remote ranching lands to the broader region of West Texas.
