2016 Map of Simms

About this map

Palo Duro Cr meanders across the southern portion of this High Plains landscape, representing the primary drainage feature in an otherwise strictly gridded agricultural territory. The terrain is defined by a dense network of local routes, including Co Rd NN, Co Rd O, and Co Rd PP, which follow the section lines characteristic of Deaf Smith County’s rural development. This 2016 survey illustrates the modern transition from traditional ranching to more structured rural road systems, highlighted by the prominence of Ranch Rd 1412 and Fm 2587. The map reveals the subtle topographic depressions and playas that dot the panhandle, providing a detailed record of the water management and land use patterns that define this section of the Texas Llano Estacado.
