2012 Map of McElroy Ranch
USGS Topo · Published 2012About this map
McElroy Ranch serves as the namesake for this expanse of Upton County, where the industrial infrastructure of the Permian Basin meets the enduring traditions of West Texas ranching. The landscape is defined by a sparse but vital network of county and ranch roads, including Ranch Road 1492 and McElroy Ranch Rd, which connect isolated water sources to the regional economy. Water management is a central theme of this terrain, evidenced by landmarks like Bomber Windmill and Shell Windmill that provide necessary resources in an arid environment. Beyond livestock, the sub-surface wealth of the region is represented by the Wilshire Oil Field, showing how energy extraction and land management have overlapped in this corner of Texas.
