2012 Map of Two B Ranch

About this map

Two B Ranch is the namesake of this West Texas landscape in Yoakum County, where the high plains are partitioned into a systematic grid of ranch roads and county thoroughfares. The topography is characterized by subtle elevation changes and the organized geometry of rural land division typical of the Llano Estacado. Movement across the terrain is defined by a network of intersecting routes, including the primary north-south corridor of Ranch Road 2196 and the southern boundary marked by Cherkee Strip Rd. Local connectivity relies on a numbered system of county roads such as Co Rd-120 and Co Rd-150, which facilitate transit between large agricultural and ranching parcels. This 2012 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates a modern era of land management where traditional ranching operations utilize a highly structured transportation network to navigate the open country.
