Cheyenne Farms and the extensive network of service roads define this West Texas landscape at the start of the 21st century. The map illustrates a distinctive pattern of land use where agricultural operations like Walton Ranch coexist with numerous water-pumping stations scattered across the terrain. These landmarks, including the Tannybill Windmill, Simpson Windmill, and East Leck Windmill, are essential markers for navigation and livestock management in this arid environment. The road system is dominated by a grid of numbered county roads, such as Co RD 107, alongside evocatively named routes like Frying Pan Ranch Rd and Capitan Rd. This survey serves as a precise record of the infrastructure supporting the ranching and resource economy of the Permian Basin region, showing how remote outposts are connected through a web of local and ranch-to-market roads.
