2016 Map of Westway NE

About this map

Old La Plata Cem sits as a solitary historical marker in this portion of the Texas Panhandle, a quiet reminder of early settlement patterns in Deaf Smith County. The landscape is defined by a rigorous grid of section-line roads, such as Co RD MM and Co RD 16, reflecting the systematic agricultural development of the High Plains. This 2016 survey illustrates the endurance of the township-and-range system, where large-scale ranching and farming operations are linked by an extensive network of county roads and FM 1057. The subtle contours reveal the high plains topography, characterized by shallow depressions and playas that punctuate the otherwise level terrain. Apart from the cemetery, the map is primarily a record of modern infrastructure, showing the intersection of local routes like RD 16th and RD 12th that serve this rural expanse.
