Planning a hunt near Griffith? The Cochran County hunting map is really two maps: public areas from Texas Parks and Wildlife Department and private lines from the county. Covered here for Cochran County: state sources for public ground, how to read private parcel lines, and how to ask for permission.
Getting started with the Cochran County hunting map
For property near Griffith, start with Texas Parks and Wildlife Department for public areas, along with seasons and regulations.
Getting to the right map
Property in and around Morton are published on the Cochran CAD interactive map, free to use and open without a login. When a rural tract has no street number, follow the nearest road on the aerial until the lines appear, then click inside the one you want, and that holds around Famuliner too. For acreage around Griffith, save the parcel ID while you have it open; every records desk in the county will want it.
Scouting from the aerial
Switch to aerial imagery near Bledsoe, look for field edges, creek bottoms and timber lines; match each spot to its parcel.
Which office to call
For assessment questions about property around Famuliner belong with the appraisal district, since that office keeps the assessment data. Building or septic questions for a lot near Bledsoe need the planning or permitting office, and the answer depends on jurisdiction.
Neighboring parcel maps
