2022 Map of Wingate

About this map

Wingate and Pumphrey anchor this portion of the West Texas landscape, straddling the boundary between Taylor and Runnels counties. The area is defined by a dendritic network of intermittent streams, including Valley Creek and Fish Creek, which drain toward the south. This modern survey illustrates a rural environment shaped by land management and local history, where small settlements are often centered around their community burial grounds, such as Wingate Cem and Pumphrey Cem. The presence of the Soil Conservation Service Site 16 Reservoir and Mitchell Lake highlights the importance of water storage in this arid region. A dense grid of county roads, such as Co RD 308 and Co RD 328, reveals a persistent agricultural and ranching infrastructure that has organized the terrain into distinct, manageable blocks over decades of settlement.
