2010 Map of Olton NE

About this map

The Olton Cemetery serves as a central anchor for this part of Hale County, situated at the intersection of Cemetery Rd N and Co Rd 94. This survey reveals the systematic agricultural layout of the Texas Panhandle, defined by a rigid grid of county roads that carve the landscape into uniform sections. Significant corridors like Co Rd 321 and Co Rd 331 run north-to-south, facilitating movement between the widely dispersed homesteads and farms that characterize this rural expanse. The map illustrates the dominance of the section line road system, where names like Elm Rd and Co Rd 152 mark the boundaries of a region built on large-scale ranching and farming. Dozens of small depressions and seasonal water features dot the terrain, reflecting the localized drainage patterns typical of this High Plains geography.
