The High Plains of West Texas are defined here by a rigorous grid of section lines and ranch roads, with Morton situated at the northwestern edge of the map. This 2016 survey illustrates a landscape dominated by agriculture and aviation, notably featuring the Cochran County Airport situated north of the town center. The topography is largely level, though the rise of Ramsey Hill provides one of the few distinct elevation changes in the region. Transportation throughout the county is dictated by a network of Farm to Market roads including Fm 1780 and Fm 2195, which facilitate movement between the sprawling agricultural tracts. The map also captures numerous localized basins and depressions typical of the Llano Estacado, providing a detailed look at the rural infrastructure and land use patterns of Cochran County.
