About this map

China Draw provides the primary drainage system for this corner of Upton County, carving a seasonal watercourse through the West Texas landscape. The terrain is defined by a series of subtle ridges and draws, reflecting the arid character of the Permian Basin region. Human footprint here is concentrated along a network of ranching and utility corridors, including Amacker Rd and Ranch Loop Rd, which trace the higher ground above the drainages. State Highway 329 cuts diagonally through the center of the sheet, serving as the main artery connecting the remote ranch lands. This 2019 survey documents the modern road infrastructure, such as Co Rd 485 and Co Rd 160, used to access the various parcels and potential energy resources that characterize this part of the state.
