About this map

The energy-rich high plains of Gaines County are defined by the active Huat Oil Field, where a grid of rural county roads provides access to petroleum infrastructure. This part of West Texas exhibits a characteristic landscape of semi-arid ranching and industry, anchored by landmarks like the Cedar Point Windmill. The transportation network relies on primary corridors such as Ranch Road 303 and Ranch Road 1429, which facilitate the movement of resources through this sparse terrain. While much of the land is organized into large-scale tracts, the detailed surveying of numerous local routes like Co RD-102 and Co RD-421 reveals the underlying infrastructure required to support oil extraction and cattle operations in the early 21st century.
