1964 Map of Van Horn
USGS Topo · Published 1967About this map
The high-desert crossroads of Van Horn serves as the focal point of this mid-1960s survey, situated between the Beach Mountains and the Wylie Mountains. The town's layout reflects a classic Texas railroad and highway corridor, anchored by the Texas and Pacific line. Community infrastructure is well-defined, ranging from the Eagle Sch and local Cem to recreation-focused sites like the Golf Course, Rodeo Ground, and an early Drive-in Theater. Beyond the town limits, the landscape transitions into ranching territory, with the Neal Ranch and Lipsey Ranch established near drainage systems like Hackberry Creek and Wild Horse Creek. The presence of the County Airfield and numerous borrow pits and quarries suggests the area's role as a transportation and materials hub for Far West Texas.
