About this map

Pumpville and the surrounding ranching country of Val Verde County define this landscape as it appeared in the early 21st century. The map highlights a network of drainage systems and rugged cuts through the terrain, most notably Osman Canyon and Pumpville Canyon, which dominate the central and southwestern portions of the quadrangle. These natural features are complemented by the long reaches of Osman Draw and Little Osman Draw, tracing the movement of water across this arid environment.

Rural life is anchored by established family operations and small outposts, including Arledge Ranch, Owen Ranch, and Rancho Grande. The settlement of Osman sits along the southeastern rail or road corridor, while a spiderweb of local routes like Pumpville Rd and Arledge Ranch Rd connect these isolated locations. For the local historian, the map preserves the exact layout of these ranching headquarters and the vital waterways like Antonio Creek that have shaped land use in this corner of Texas.
