2010 Map of Lost Draw

About this map

Lost Draw meanders through this portion of Yoakum County, defining a landscape marked by a sparse but organized grid of rural roads and cattle ranching. The presence of Williams Ranch at the intersection of Williams Rd and Co Rd 395 illustrates the enduring importance of large-scale landholdings in this arid High Plains environment. The road network follows a rigid survey pattern, with long thoroughfares such as Taylor Rd and Six Mile Rd stretching across the plains to connect isolated homesteads and ranching outposts. This era of mapping shows the region's character as a working landscape, where infrastructure is designed specifically for the movement of livestock and equipment through the draws and flatlands of West Texas.
