2010 Map of Plains NW

About this map

Sulphur Springs Draw meanders across the northern portion of this Llano Estacado landscape, providing a rare hydrological feature in a region defined by its vast, flat agricultural and industrial sections. The terrain is dominated by a precise grid of rural thoroughfares, reflecting the systematic land surveying of Yoakum County. Significant energy infrastructure is evident in the southern reaches, specifically within the Brahaney Oil Field, which marks the area's intersection with the Permian Basin's petroleum economy. Local history and family lineages are etched into the map through named arteries such as Mc Nabb Rd, Morrow Rd, and Chambliss Rd. These roads, alongside Old Lovington Rd, trace the movement of goods and people through the high plains, connecting isolated homesteads and industrial sites to the wider region.
