Olney serves as the primary hub in this corner of North Texas, where the transition from a traditional ranching economy to one influenced by natural resources is clearly visible. The landscape is defined by the Larimore Oil Field and the meandering paths of California Cr and Rabbit Cr, illustrating a region where industry and geography are deeply intertwined. In the northeast, the town grid of Olney is well-defined, featuring landmarks such as the Olney Municipal Airport and several local residential streets. Away from the town center, the terrain is dotted with markers of local history and family heritage, such as the Orth Cem and the prominent rise of Skid Mtn. This survey captures the rural infrastructure of Young County through a network of ranch roads and section lines that have organized the territory for generations.
