2019 Map of Talpa

About this map

Talpa sits near the western edge of Coleman County, where the landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Colorado River basin. The town's grid is small but distinct, situated south of Cow Br and north of Talpa City Lake. This survey illustrates the rural character of the Texas ranch lands, marked by family and community landmarks such as Herring Cem and Talpa Cem. Significant water management is visible through features like the Soil Conservation Service Site 3 Reservoir, which addresses the drainage of Elm Cr. The map further documents the county boundary with Runnels County, showing how the local road network, including FM 2132 and FM 2805, connects these dispersed agricultural holdings and water sources like Middle Mustang Cr.
