2012 Map of Welch East

About this map

The High Plains of Dawson County are defined by a rhythmic grid of agricultural roads and scattered water features in this 2012 study. The community of Pride serves as a local landmark, anchored by the nearby Pride Cem, while the town of Welch sits at the western edge of the quadrangle. The terrain is marked by a series of ephemeral depressions and intermittent drainage patterns, most notably Lost Draw which feeds into Frost Lake. This network of country roads, including Co RD A and Co RD-391, reflects the modern organization of the West Texas cotton and ranching country, where the landscape is etched by a precise secondary road system linking isolated farmsteads and agricultural centers across the Llano Estacado.
