Oberkampf Ranch and Nettleton Ranch anchor this West Texas landscape, illustrating the enduring cattle and sheep ranching traditions of Val Verde County. The terrain is defined by dry washes and drainage patterns typical of the Edwards Plateau, most notably the namesake Steel Star Draw and Samson Draw in the northeastern corner. Infrastructure is sparse, characterized by long stretches of Ranch Road 1024 and Juno Rd W that connect isolated homesteads like Carson Ranch. The inclusion of the Divide Windmill highlights the vital role of groundwater management in this arid environment, where such markers are essential landmarks for navigation and agricultural survival.
