1969 Map of Sanderson NE

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Brown Ranch sits in the high plateau country of Terrell County, surrounded by the complex drainage systems characteristic of the Trans-Pecos region in the late 1960s. The landscape is defined by the winding path of Eightmile Draw, which cuts through the terrain as the primary topographical landmark of the quadrangle. As a working ranch landscape, the area is dotted with essential water infrastructure including several instances of a Water Tank, such as Water Tank 3371 and Water Tank 2922. A single Corral located near the southern reaches of the draw provides a specific point of interest for those tracing the history of Texas livestock operations. This 1969 field-checked survey reveals the functional layout of a remote ranching station where terrain and water access dictated every aspect of human settlement and land use.
