2016 Map of Pep

About this map

Pep anchors this High Plains landscape at the intersection of four Texas counties: Bailey, Lamb, Cochran, and Hockley. The settlement is centered around St Phillips church and the adjacent Saint Phillips Cem, reflecting the area's community roots amidst a grid of rural roads. The terrain is defined by natural drainage features and depressions, most notably the prominent Silver Lake and the nearby Silver Springs. These water sources sit in a landscape carved by ephemeral watercourses like Yellow House Draw in the south and Goat Draw to the north. A rigid network of roads named for world regions and American cities, such as Spain, Poland, Quebec, and Nashville, overlays the agricultural expanse, illustrating a planned approach to rural land division and regional connectivity.
