Ryan is the primary landmark on this sparse high-desert landscape in Presidio County, situated along the corridor of Highway 90. The area is characterized by open terrain with intermittent watercourses and a network of unpaved local roads that branch out from the main highway. As a small settlement in the Big Bend region, Ryan sits within a vast expanse where the development pattern is defined by the proximity to the roadway and the natural drainage features that cut through the desert floor. This 2012 survey provides a clear view of the modern road network and basic infrastructure of this corner of West Texas, offering a precise digital record of the land before further environmental or development changes occurred.
