2012 Map of Jericho

About this map

Jericho stands as a focal point in this Donley County landscape, situated along the southern edge of a dissected plateau where the Texas Panhandle begins its gradual transition. The terrain is defined by the dendritic drainage patterns of McClellan Cr and its tributaries, including Apple Orchard Cr and Carrol Cr. These watercourses carve into the surrounding plains, leading toward the recreation area at Lake McClellan and the McClellan Campground in the northeast. This 2012 survey captures the modern road network, where the east-west corridor of Interstate 40 and its Frontage Rd bisect the quadrangle, superseding the older path of local routes like Co Road B. For those researching local history, the map precisely locates the Jericho Cem and Boydston Cem, providing essential coordinates for genealogical study in this sparsely populated cattle-country environment.
