2019 Map of Ira

About this map

The community of Ira anchors this West Texas landscape where the high plains meet the winding course of the Colorado River. This 2019 survey documents a rural environment defined by a dense network of county roads and ranching routes, including Ranch Rd 1229 and Ira School Rd. Water is the primary architect of the terrain here; the river is joined by numerous tributaries such as Bull Creek, Bluff Cr, and Willow Cr that carve deep into the land, most notably at Cedar Canyon. This drainage system illustrates the erosion patterns characteristic of the region's ranchlands. For those tracing local heritage, the Bluff Creek Cem remains a significant landmark north of the river, while the crossing of the Scurry Co and Mitchell Co line provides a clear boundary for regional genealogical and land-use research.
