2010 Map of Wells Ranch

About this map

Carrizo Creek winds through this section of the Texas Panhandle, defining the subtle drainage patterns of a landscape dominated by ranching and rural infrastructure. The map depicts the sparse but intentional layout of Hartley County in the early 21st century, where the Wells Ranch and Bunker Hill represent key points of human occupation. A rigid grid of transportation corridors, including Telephone Rd and Fm 1727, facilitates movement across the open plains, connecting isolated homesteads and grazing lands. The presence of numerous named thoroughfares such as Parker Rd and Newson Rd highlights the importance of road access in this expansive environment. This survey captures a moment in the region's contemporary history, where traditional land use continues to shape the character of the High Plains.
