2019 Map of Stephenson Lake

About this map

Monahans Draw and Midland Draw define the drainage patterns across this section of Midland County, where the landscape is etched by ephemeral watercourses. This 2019 survey documents a rural Texas environment dominated by a grid-like network of county roads and ranch access points, such as Crespin Ranch Rd and various routes designated as Pvt Rch Rd. The transit network is anchored by E FM 158, which cuts diagonally across the northern half of the quadrangle. The map reveals the persistence of traditional ranching boundaries and the infrastructure of the Permian Basin, evidenced by the numerous unnamed depressions and the scattered development along routes like Ranch Rd 1213 and FM 1379. Researchers can trace the modern road evolution from established state roads to local gravel and private tracks.
