1983 Map of Tinaja NE

About this map

Loma Vista Ranch and One O One Ranch anchor this landscape along the border of Presidio and Brewster Counties in the Trans-Pecos region of West Texas. The high-desert terrain is defined by the expansive One Flat and the meandering path of Antelope Draw, which cuts through the northwestern portion of the quadrangle. Transportation and infrastructure are concentrated in the northern reaches, where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad runs parallel to modern thoroughfares. Evidence of local activity and land use is sparse but distinct, marked by a remote Landing Strip, several cattle tanks, and a scattered Gravel Pit. The map captures a moment in the early 1980s when large-scale ranching operations and the railroad still dictated the footprint of human presence in this isolated part of the state.
