About this map

The High Plains landscape of Floyd County is defined by a dense, systematic grid of section roads and scattered ephemeral playa lakes. At the heart of this agricultural expanse lies the settlement of Lone Star, positioned at the junction of several county routes and Ranch Road 378 Spur. To the north, Sherman Airport serves as a lone aviation landmark amidst the broad plateau, while the southern reaches of the quadrangle are carved by the winding drainage of Quitaque Cr. This topography reflects the intensive land use and rural infrastructure of West Texas in the early 21st century. Navigational arteries such as Fm-378 and Ranch Road 788 provide the primary connection through a terrain primarily occupied by farming interests and remote ranching outposts.
