2016 Map of Tovrea Ranch

About this map

Rita Blanca National Grassland dominates the northern landscape of this Dallam County region, preserving a significant portion of the High Plains shortgrass prairie. This survey captures a corner of the Panhandle defined by expansive open range and intermittent watercourses, most notably the winding path of Rita Blanca Cr in the southwest. The Tovrea Ranch serves as a primary marker of the area's continued ranching heritage, situated amidst a grid of local roads and sections that reflect the late 20th-century land management patterns. While primarily a landscape of conservation and cattle, the terrain's gentle contours reveal the subtle drainage systems that have shaped the cattle industry in this corner of the Texas Panhandle.
