2016 Map of Morton

About this map

Morton serves as the focal point of this High Plains landscape, organized by a precise grid of residential and commercial streets. The town's layout is meticulously detailed, showing the intersection of local routes like FM 1780 and E Washington Ave with a broad network of county roads that extend into the surrounding agricultural terrain. To the north of the main settlement lies Morton Memorial Cem, a significant site for genealogical research in Cochran County. The surrounding area is defined by a rhythmic pattern of county roads, such as Co RD 64 and Co RD 74, which partition the land into large sections typical of West Texas ranching and farming territory. The geographic data reveals the subtle topography and water catchment basins common to this region, providing a clear look at how human infrastructure adheres to the flat, expansive environment of the Llano Estacado.
