2022 Map of Welch West

About this map

Welch sits at the eastern edge of this West Texas landscape, where the agricultural grid of the Llano Estacado meets the naturally winding course of Sulphur Springs Draw. The map documents a complex network of county roads, such as Co Rd 670 and Co Rd 531, which define the section lines across three intersecting counties: Terry, Gaines, and Dawson. This tri-county boundary area illustrates the highly organized land partitioning characteristic of the region's ranching and farming history. While much of the terrain is dominated by these straight-line access routes like Co Rd 690, the meandering path of the draw provides a distinct contrast to the man-made geometry, marking a low-lying drainage feature essential to the local geography. Local transit is anchored by Ranch Rd 829 and named thoroughfares such as Juniper St and Hickory near the primary settlement.
