About this map

Large cattle and sheep ranching operations define the high plateau landscape of Schleicher County in this 2010 topographic survey. The territory is marked by a network of private holdings, including White Ranch, Robinson Ranch, and Lovelace Ranch, illustrating the enduring importance of family-named agricultural estates in West Texas. These properties are connected by rural corridors such as Co RD 316 and Rudd RD, which navigate a terrain carved by seasonal drainage systems.

Hydrological features like South Concho Draw and Concho Draw trend toward the northeast, while Live Oak Hollow and Milligan Draw score the southern and western portions of the quadrangle. The presence of Spence Ranch, Burrus Ranch, and Brown Ranch suggests a stable pattern of land ownership and use that has persisted through the early 21st century. This map captures the expansive, quiet nature of the region before significant shifts in infrastructure or land subdivision.
