About this map

Divide Draw and a series of named ephemeral drainages dominate this Reagan County landscape, illustrating the intricate catchment patterns of the West Texas plains. The terrain is marked by family-named and descriptive landmarks like Red House Draw, Talley Draw, and Big Jim Draw, which suggest a history of ranching and land tenure tied to these subtle topographic depressions.

Modern infrastructure follows the established patterns of the rural high plains, with Ranch Rd 33 and Highway 137 providing primary access. The grid of local routes, including Carr Ranch Rd and Rocky Rd, service the various parcels and ranching operations. The presence of Isaac Draw and Lewis Draw further emphasizes the importance of these drainage features as primary points of reference in an area defined by wide-open spaces and ranching heritage.
