2010 Map of South Cowden Ranch
USGS Topo · Published 2010About this map
South Cowden Ranch and its surrounding Permian Basin landscape are defined by an intricate network of energy production and ranching infrastructure. This area of West Texas shows a transition from traditional livestock management to extensive petroleum extraction, evidenced by the proximity of the Virey Oil Field, Moose Oil Field, and Concho Bluff North Oil Field to scattered livestock landmarks. A high density of named water-pumping sites, including the McElroy Trap Windmill, Double Well Windmill, and the colorfully named Hillbilly Windmill, reveals the critical role of groundwater in this arid terrain. Residential and service roads like Summerstar Rd and S Snow Moon Ave branch off from S Highway 385 State Rte, while the Railway Ranch occupies the southeastern corner near the rail line.
