How to Use This Dumas, Texas Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Dumas, Texas. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Texas or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Dumas.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Dumas occupies a vast expanse of the high plains, where the horizon stretches toward an endless, pale sky that swallows the day in silence. It lies 35.1 miles west-northwest of Borger, TX (from Borger, TX: bearing 293°T), and is situated 13.0 miles south of Cactus. The earth here remains flat and resolute, broken only by the subtle depression of South Palo Duro Creek, which traces a quiet path three miles from the center. To the west, the silhouette of John Ray Butte rises against the evening light, a solitary marker in an otherwise unbroken field of grass and grain. Residents often watch the sunset bleed into violet shadows, feeling the immense weight of the open air that defines this high-altitude landscape. Lake Meredith sits twenty miles away, offering a rare collection of water in a region defined by its dry, sweeping clarity. Texhoma Park provides a local refuge where the native flora persists, indifferent to the passage of travelers or the turning of seasons.

Dumas emerged from the ambition of the early twentieth century, rooted in the hard work of those who saw potential in the wind-swept prairie. The regional economy relies heavily on the steady pulse of the oil and gas industries, which have shaped the local infrastructure and the character of the workforce for generations. Agriculture remains a steadfast partner, with fields of corn and wheat radiating outward like spokes on a wheel, feeding the cattle that graze across the surrounding plains. The sound of machinery often punctuates the morning, a rhythmic reminder of the production that keeps the local commerce moving forward. Families here have built a life upon the extraction and cultivation of the land, finding a quiet stability in the labor required to sustain a livelihood in this climate. Over time, the industrial activity has matured, creating a pragmatic environment where every resource is handled with careful, deliberate intent.

Dumas carries a distinct cultural temperament, one forged by the rugged independence typical of the high plains and the communal bonds formed in a sparse, open territory. The local spirit manifests in the pride taken during high school athletic contests, where the community gathers to watch the Friday night lights shine against the dark expanse of the prairie. While the town remains modest in its offerings, it preserves a sense of place through its public spaces and the shared experiences of its residents. Notably, the athlete and coach John "Bum" Phillips once walked these streets, bringing a measure of national recognition through his storied career in professional football. The pace of life slows when the wind dies down, allowing the quiet beauty of a starlit, unpolluted night to settle over the rooftops. Such moments reveal the simple, enduring nature of a life lived far from the clamor of coastal centers, where the land speaks louder than any human voice.
