2019 Map of Verhalen North

About this map

Verhalen and Hoban anchor this high desert landscape in Reeves County, Texas, where an organized grid of county roads meets the natural drainage of the Trans-Pecos. The map illustrates a transitional zone where human settlement follows the arterial paths of Ranch Rd 869 and Barrilla Rd. Significant ephemeral watercourses, including Toyah Cr and Cherry Cr, carve winding paths across the otherwise linear surveying of the terrain. The proximity of these two small communities along the roadway network suggests a legacy of ranching and early agricultural development in this arid region. Researchers can trace the exact footprint of local infrastructure from Co Rd 112 to the northern reaches of Co Rd 128, revealing how the land was partitioned and accessed in the early 21st century.
