2010 Map of West of Sundown

About this map

Girlstown USA and its residential campus anchor the northwestern corner of this landscape, situated within a dense network of sectional roads and oil-related infrastructure in Hockley County. The terrain is defined by two prominent ephemeral watercourses, Lost Draw and Sulphur Draw, which carve shallow paths across the high plains. The road naming convention reflects the region's petroleum history and ranching identity, featuring thoroughfares such as Wildcat Rd, Roughneck Rd, and Sampson Post Rd. This layout reveals a land transitioned from open range to a highly organized industrial and agricultural grid. Local movement is facilitated by state-maintained routes like FM 1780 and FM 1585, which intersect a labyrinth of named tracks like Sagebrush Rd and Tumbleweed Rd, illustrating the intensive development of the Llano Estacado's mineral and land resources during this era.
