About this map

North Tank provides a vital water source in this arid expanse of Culberson County, where the desert floor is defined by a series of long, winding drainages. The landscape is dominated by the broad paths of Hart Draw, Hopper Draw, and Herds Pass Draw, which carve through the high plains. These dry washes serve as the primary topographical features in an area otherwise characterized by its isolation and sparse infrastructure.

Transportation through this ranching country relies on a network of unpaved local connectors, including Gresham Rd and Toyah Rd. The convergence of Kent Rd and Elcor-Toyah Rd reflects the established movement patterns of the region, connecting remote corners of the county. For the land-use researcher or genealogist, the map highlights the enduring footprint of high-desert water management and the specific roads that have defined access to this West Texas territory for generations.
