2016 Map of Continental Ranch

About this map

Continental Ranch anchors this portion of West Texas, where the landscape is defined by the deep incision of Big Canyon and its associated drainages. Mapping of this area reveals a network of rural access roads that follow the high ground and canyon floors, including Running W Rd and Hardgrave Rd. These paths likely represent historic ranching corridors through the scrub-dominated plateau country. Along the northern edge, McKay Cr cuts through the high desert, illustrating the ephemeral but powerful water systems that shape the local topography. In the southeast, Ranch Rd 1217 provides a primary transit point near its intersection with Stavley Rd, connecting this remote corner of Terrell County to the broader region.
