About this map

The settlement of Wingate serves as a focal point in this West Texas landscape, positioned where the county line separates Taylor and Runnels counties. The area is defined by a systematic grid of rural roads and the drainage patterns of several seasonal waterways, including Valley Creek, Fish Creek, and the winding Big Coyote Creek. To the east, the small community of Pumphrey sits near the Pumphrey Cemetery, providing a specific point of interest for those tracing family history in the region.

Water management is a visible priority across this terrain, evidenced by the Soil Conservation Service Site 16 Reservoir and Mitchell Lake. The map details a transition from the flatter southern reaches to more complex contouring in the northeast near Bluff Creek and Salt Branch, reflecting the headwaters of the regional drainage system. The extensive network of county roads, such as Co RD 395 and Co RD 328, illustrates the established rural infrastructure connecting these agricultural communities.
