About this map

The Middle Concho River winds through the southern portion of this landscape, carving a valley between the mesas of western Tom Green County and eastern Irion County. This 2016 survey captures a ranching-focused environment where transportation routes like Arden Rd and Duncan Rd navigate the high divides and creek bottoms. The presence of Midway Cem near the eastern margin suggests a longstanding community center in an otherwise sparsely populated area.

Surface drainage is defined by intermittent systems such as E Rocky Cr and Brushy Cr, which feed toward the main river channel. The map clearly delineates the Irion Co Tom Green Co boundary, illustrating how the political border follows the natural topography. Modern road names, including N Burma Rd and S Burma Rd, provide contemporary reference points for researchers tracing family land tracts or examining the evolution of rural infrastructure in West Texas.
