McLean

McLean combines a compact roadside townscape with the broad openness of the Texas Panhandle in a way that reflects its position on the High Plains along historic Route 66. The old highway, now largely paralleled by Interstate 40, made the town a familiar stop for cross-country motorists and still defines much of its identity. At the Devil’s Rope Museum, barbed wire is treated as a record of ranching, fencing, and settlement across the American West; the museum also preserves Route 66 material. A former Phillips 66 station recalls the service businesses that accompanied automobile travel. Browse other webcams across the Texas Panhandle to place McLean in a wider geographic context.
