About this map

The community of Umbarger serves as the focal point of this high-plains landscape, situated at the intersection of FM 168 and a major rail corridor. This region of Randall County is defined by the winding course of Tierra Blanca Creek, which snakes eastward through the southern half of the quadrangle. The hydrology of the area is further modified by the Umbarger Dam, creating a significant water feature in an otherwise arid grazing and agricultural environment.

Evidence of established ranching operations is visible in the presence of the Flying Mare Ranch and Seven B Ranch. Local history and genealogy researchers will find the Saint Mary Cemetery located just south of the main settlement. The map reveals a highly structured grid of section roads, including Adkisson Rd and Sampson Rd, which frame the agricultural tracts surrounding the creek's drainage basin.
